Book excerpt: Herman Cyril McNeile (1888-1937) commonly known as H. C. McNeile or Sapper, was a British soldier and author. Drawing on his experiences in the trenches during the First World War, he started writing short stories and getting them published in the Daily Mail. After the war McNeile left the army and continued writing, although he changed from war stories to thrillers. In 1920 he published Bulldog Drummond, whose eponymous hero became his best-known creation. The character was based on McNeile himself, on his friend Gerard Fairlie and on English gentlemen generally. Drummond is a First World War veteran, brutalised by his experiences in the trenches and bored with his post-war lifestyle. He publishes an advertisement looking for adventure, and soon finds himself embroiled in a series of exploits, many of which involve Carl Peterson—who becomes his nemesis—and Peterson's mistress, the femme fatale Irma. McNeile interspersed his Drummond work with other detective novels and story collections that included two characters who appeared as protagonists in their own works, Jim Maitland and Ronald Standish. H. C. McNeile thrillers are a continuation of his war stories, with upper class Englishmen defending England from foreigners plotting against it._x000D_ This unique and meticulously edited collection includes: Jim Maitland_x000D_ The Island of Terror_x000D_ Bulldog Drummond _x000D_ The Black Gang _x000D_ The Third Round _x000D_ The Final Count _x000D_ The Female of the Species _x000D_ Temple Tower _x000D_ The Return of Bulldog Drummond _x000D_ Knock-Out_x000D_ Bulldog Drummond at Bay_x000D_ Challenge_x000D_ The Horror At Staveley Grange_x000D_ Tiny Carteret_x000D_ Ronald Standish_x000D_ Men, Women and Guns _x000D_ The Saving Clause _x000D_ Out of the Blue_x000D_ The Finger of Fate

Download or read book The Jimmy Quinn Mysteries written by Michael Mayo and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Prohibition-era crime scene comes alive in three novels “sure to appeal to fans of Max Allan Collins’s gangster historicals” (Publishers Weekly). Novelist and film critic Michal Mayo “persuasively portrays such real-life mobsters as Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano” in this crime fiction series set in the 1930s featuring Jimmy Quinn, aka Jimmy the Stick (Publishers Weekly). Jimmy was a gunman, bootlegger, and bagman—until a bullet in the leg and the murder of gangster boss Arnold Rothstein ended his career. Now Quinn runs a speakeasy in downtown Manhattan, but he just can’t seem to stay out of trouble . . . Jimmy the Stick: In Mayo’s “gritty first novel,” Jimmy’s old friend and partner Walter Spencer has left his criminal past behind, marrying into the Pennyweight family—of Pennyweight Petroleum—and settling into a legitimate lifestyle in rural New Jersey (Publishers Weekly). But with the Lindbergh kidnapping in the news, Spence wants Quinn to protect his family while he takes care of business out of state. Unfortunately, Quinn quickly finds that the Garden State can be even more dangerous than the mean streets of New York City. Everybody Goes to Jimmy’s: When a bomb blast rocks the alley outside Quinn’s quiet little Manhattan speakeasy, his memory flashes back twelve years to when he was delivering a bribe for racketeer Arnold Rothstein and a bomb went off on Wall Street, killing thirty people. It seems like the motive behind this bombing may be the same as that previous explosion: money. Soon Quinn’s on a mad race to stay out of the line of fire, taking him from the heights of the Chrysler Building to the depths of New York’s underworld. Jimmy and Fay: In March 1933, King Kong is premiering at Radio City Music Hall, and Fay Wray is about to become a star. One problem: a blackmailer has pictures of a Fay Wray look-alike engaging in conduct that would make even the giant ape blush, and the movie studio—with the cooperation of a slightly corrupt NYPD detective—wants Jimmy Quinn to settle the matter quietly. But stopping the extortion will cut just as deeply as Fay’s famous scream, ringing from Broadway all the way to Chinatown.
