"Compliments of a Fiend" by Fredric Brown. Bloodhound Book 1186 (1957). First British edition. Cover Art by Dobson Broadhead
From the back cover:
Was someone collecting Ambroses?
Ed Hunter’s Uncle Ambrose was missing and the only clue to his whereabouts was a mysterious telephone call by a man who said his name was Ambrose Collector.
From that point onward the case became more and more confusing as Ed interviewed ex-racketeers, astrologers, crystal-gazers and even a Science fiction reader who firmly believed Uncle Am had been kidnapped by the Martians.
