HIS6929. California businessman Harold Lockwood, 30s, and his new lover Nick Glassner, 16 become targeted by a man Harold forces to leave town because of his sexual activities with prepubescent boys. "This one is in Gunn, page 244. It really does not belong there, but as a result of the World Catalog classifying it as a gay mystery, I first discovered the entire world of gay pulp mysteries. So its inclusion is a kind of homage/thank you to WC's mistake." Drewey Wayne Gunn.
