The joys of google...
"This American collection comprises three short stories - 'He Was Asking after You', 'The Sexton's Wife' and ''Tis Not Hereafter' - and the title novella. 'Wanted: Someone Innocent' tells of an attractive and rather naïve young woman, Gillian Brayton, who takes up the post of 'a sort of social secretary' in the household of a former schoolfriend - only to find herself threatened by an unknown evil."

I was pretty sure it wasn't a Campion...

This looks like a fake Dell mapback.

Popular Library also had some covers in that style in the '40s.
