About This Item
The Detective Book Club produced volumes of three crime novels from 1942 to 1999. Originally monthly, near the end they dwindled down to just a few per year. Many famous detective and crime novelists had their early works featured in DBC editions. Often, books were published in DBC editions before, or at the same time as they were published in mass market form. A little about our authors:
Velda Johnston: Writer of romantic suspense, Johnston published 38 stand alone novels. She did not have any series characters. Johnston died in 1997. This particular novel is often classified in the horror genre.
Victor Canning: A prolific writer in the mystery genre, Canning didn't do too much with recurring characters. He had three short series, with the Rex Carver series being the longest at four books. Most of his writing was of stand alone novels, of which he published 50. Canning passed away in 1986.
Rosemary Gatenby: A writer of mysteries and suspense, American Rosemary Gatenby published nine works through her career, between 1967 and 1979. Gatenby died in 2007. The Third Identity is her last published work.
