I Hope They're Worried by Don James

It gave John Marshal a chill, creepy feeling to sit by and watch, play by play, his own murder develop. Particularly since he knew that this was the second time that he'd be dead.

Don James was an author in the pulp noir fiction tradition. He was a newsman, editor, radio and TV writer, and a copy chief for advertising agencies. By the late 1950s, he had written several hundred fiction stories and articles which appeared in more than 34 national magazines such as American and Collier's.


I'll Be Seeing You by Day Keene

His grapefruit was iced and laced with sherry. A morning paper was folded on the tray. Life, O'Hara thought, was a pretty fine affair if a man had sense enough to take from it what he wanted... Today he must send a spray of flowers to District Attorney Martin's funeral... And if O'Hara had been more far-sighted, he would have ordered some more for his own!

Day Keene was the pseudonym of Gunnar Hjerstedt. Other pseudonyms include Lewis Dixon, Alvin F. Hunter, William Richards, Clark Nelson, Daniel White, John Corbett & Donald King (1904-1969). Keene targeted the crime and detective pulps, and soon proved he could handle the sex stuff and tough stuff as well as anyone. But his wry wit and sly humour– not to mention his talent for creating three-dimensional and often flawed male characters –made him stand out in a field dominated by one-dimensional slabs of beef.
