Classic crime fiction. McKnight wrote dozens of "B-sides" for Ace Doubles, often only 30k or so words. They're always fast-paced and fun, though, like this one about a man framed--purportedly by his ex-wife--for a murder he himself witnessed. https://t.co/cfdyNSq8s1

Classic quasi-crime fiction. Really a spy novel, but Stern wrote PI novels (and even won an Edgar), so I gave it a shot. It has all the qualities you'd expect of a Cold War era spy novel with a crime fiction flavor. https://t.co/xJYxY1J45q

Hold Back the Sun: U.S. Asiatic Fleet vs Japan

Warren Bell
Guilty Crime Story MagazineGuilty Crime Story Magazine

Quasi-classic, quasi-crime fiction. I've read one other John Vail novel, HOLD BACK THE SUN, an excellent, pulpy adventure in the Sahara. This has the same setting, but I like it much less. It's a fine novel about French colonialism vs native lifestyles but not what I expected. https://t.co/ghrMe6fGT2
