About the book: year / This collection of novels in the genre of "hard-boiled detective" by Brett Holliday, aka Davis Dresser, contains the author's works, currently translated into Russian. The main character of the novels, Michael Shane, a red-haired detective, was a 6-foot-tall brute with a mountain of muscles and excellent reflexes. Mike Shane was conceived in 1935, but the first book, Death Dividends, was not published until 1939 under the pseudonym Asa Baker. If the first novel brought him fame, then the second brought him money. The rights to film it were purchased by 20th Century Fox. And then everything went along the well-trodden path. Happy reading!
