Doan and Carstairs Norbert Davis

For the first time in an authorized edition, all five stories of Doan and his "partner," his Great Dane, Carstairs. These quirky hard-boiled detective stories were written by Norbert Davis, the Black Mask author who inspired Raymond Chandler to try his hand at the genre. This edition includes all three Doan and Carstairs novels (The Mouse in the Mountain, Sally's in the Alley, and Oh, Murderer Mine), as well as the two short stories from the pulps: "Holocaust House" and "Cry Murder!" It's rounded off with an all-new introduction by Evan Lewis.
