About This Item
Due to a developing spine break near the middle of the book (see photo #2), this volume is being offered at half price.
The Detective Book Club produced volumes of three crime novels from 1942 to 1999. Originally monthly, near the end they dwindled down to just a few per year. Many famous detective and crime novelists had their early works featured in DBC editions. Often, books were published in DBC editions before, or at the same time as they were published in mass market form. A little about our authors:
Lillian O'Donnell: O'Donnell created three detective series, the longest running being the Nora Mulcahaney series, with 17 books. O'Donnell published about 35 books over a 35 year career. Thisis the thirdof three in the Mici Anhalt series.
Helen McCloy: Helen McCloy was a journalist who transitioned into a writer. She published fifteen novels, of which Thirteen were in her Basil Willing series. A short story collection was published ten years after her death in 1993. This is the final Basil Willing novel.
Pauline Glen Winslow: Winslow is another British mystery writer. She published 15 mysteries between 1973 and 1990. This includes the six book Superintendent Capricorn series. This is the fifth book in that series.
