Praise for Death by Contract "I read it right through one evening because I was trying to figure out who the murderer was." The Kibitzer "Take a cheating accusation in the Vanderbilt final, add a two-day money bridge game with $100,000 as first prize, mix in a murder and you have the major ingredients for Shirley Presberg's delightful novel." The Bridge Bulletin "Death by Contract...is reminiscent of my favorite all time bridge novel, Tickets to the Devil." Bridge Buffs' Bulletin "Readers will be amused and bemused by Death, which has the clearly drawn structure of a complicated public competition playing itself out, punctuated by sophisticated cheating, quick-time violence and sundry in-house hanky-panky.
