Excerpt: ... chapter xx From Out The Past on a bright, balmy afternoon in late November the Planters' Bank of New Orleans was about to close its doors for the day when two men, obviously strangers, entered and approached the paying teller's window. One was tall and lantern jawed and moved with the lithe ease which told of perfect muscular training; the other heavy set but not bulky, with a stubby, reddish mustache on the long upper lip and keen smiling blue eyes. "You've a director at this bank named Justin Messager. I'd like to know where I can find him, please," announced the heavier of the two strangers. The languid teller stared. "Mr. Messager never comes to the bank and rareiy to a meeting," he replied coldly. "Is there anything we can do for you?" "No, it's him I've got to see. Where did you say he lived?" "I didn't say!" the teller snapped. "Mr. Messager is very feeble and does not permit himself to be annoyed. What is the nature of your business with him?" "That's his look-out!" The blue eyes narrowed and glinted gray. "We've been sent from New York to see him and if you want to make a secret of his whereabouts, I suppose there's a directory or two in this town! Come along, Denny!" "Oh, from New York?" The teller s manner underwent a change. "Mr. Messager lives out on St. Charles Avenue; I'll write the address for you. The first vice-president is here, if you would care to see him instead." The stranger declined, and receiving the proffered slip of paper, he departed, followed by his companion. "Look here, Mac, you've not told me a word of what we're after!" the latter complained. "Who is this Justin Messager, and what for are we trailing a feeble old man that'll likely have us thrown out for intruding on him?" "He was a crony of Pierre...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from At One-Thirty: A Mystery Rising from his chair, Damon Gaunt crossed the library to the window, and flung it wide, drinking in the sultry air of early autumn as though he loved it, listening to the familiar noises of the street with ears eagerly at tuned. Although, in passing, he had touched the different articles of furniture in his path casually and lightly, with those long, slim, wonderfully sensitive fingers of his, it had been but absentmindedly, not gropingly hesitant, and it was not until one looked straight and level into his soft, deep-brown eyes that one realized they were sightless. He sighed deeply as he stood at the window, his fingertips touching delicately here and there the trailing tendrils of ivy that reached out boldly from the trellised vine, which clambered over the brick walls of the house. No man loved life - vibrant, pulsating life - more than Damon Gaunt, nor more deeply yearned to know it to the full.

Book excerpt: A pioneering, dazzling satire about a biracial black girl from Philadelphia searching for her Jewish father in New York City Oreo is raised by her maternal grandparents in Philadelphia. Her black mother tours with a theatrical troupe, and her Jewish deadbeat dad disappeared when she was an infant, leaving behind a mysterious note that triggers her quest to find him. What ensues is a playful, modernized parody of the classical odyssey of Theseus with a feminist twist, immersed in seventies pop culture, and mixing standard English, black vernacular, and Yiddish with wisecracking aplomb. Oreo, our young hero, navigates the labyrinth of sound studios and brothels and subway tunnels in Manhattan, seeking to claim her birthright while unwittingly experiencing and triggering a mythic journey of self-discovery like no other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now for the first time ever in one volume, all twenty-eight stories and two serialized novels starring the Continental Op—one of the greatest characters in storied history of detective fiction. Dashiell Hammett is the father of modern hard-boiled detective stories. His legendary works have been lauded for almost one hundred years by fans, and his novel The Maltese Falcon was adapted into a classic film starring Humphrey Bogart. One of Dashiell Hammett's most memorable characters, the Continental Op made his debut in Black Mask magazine on October 1, 1923, narrating the first of twenty-eight stories and two novels that would change forever the face of detective fiction. The Op is a tough, wry, unglamorous gumshoe who has inspired a following that is both global and enduring. He has been published in periodicals, paperback digests, and short story collections, but until now, he has never, in all his ninety-two years, had the whole of his exploits contained in one book. The book features all twenty-eight of the original standalone Continental Op stories, the original serialized versions of Red Harvest and The Dain Curse, and previously unpublished material. This anthology of Continental Op stories is the only complete, one-volume work of its kind.

Austin Freeman: Thriller Classics, Adventure Novels & Detective Stories (Illustrated)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Richard Austin Freeman (1862-1943) was a British writer of detective stories, mostly featuring the forensic investigator Dr. Thorndyke. He introduced the inverted detective story; a crime fiction in which the commission of the crime is described at the beginning, usually including the identity of the perpetrator, with the story then describing the detective's attempt to solve the mystery. Many of the Dr. Thorndyke stories involve genuine, but often quite arcane, points of scientific knowledge, from areas such as tropical medicine and toxicology.

This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the film Clue came out in 1985, audiences were baffled. A movie based on a board game, with three different endings, and you had to pick which one to go see? Bad reviews compounded the problem, and instead of choosing one ending, most people stayed away entirely. Clue, outgrossed at the box office by films that had been released months earlier, quickly faded away. When it unceremoniously premiered on Showtime a year after its theatrical debut, there was no sign it was destined for anything other than obscurity, another flop bound to be forgotten.Instead, Gen Xers and millennials, raised on pop culture and cable TV in an era long before the streaming wars, discovered this zany farce about a group of six strangers locked in a remote house with a killer. The movie appealed to kids. The creepy mansion and eerie music contrasted with slapstick gags and double entendres, deflating the tension. Today, almost forty years later, Clue is the epitome of a cult classic, with midnight screenings, script readings for charity, cosplaying fans, and a stage play.“ What Do You Mean, Murder?” dives deep into the making of Clue and walks fans through the movie they know and love. From producer Debra Hill' s original idea of Detective Parker bumbling around a mansion to Carrie Fisher' s casting as Miss Scarlet, from Madeline Kahn' s iconic “ flames” ad-lib to the legendary deleted fourth ending, it' s all here. With asides on fandom, Gen X nostalgia, and at how movies were made in the 1980s, the book offers plenty to chew on for die-hard buffs and casual fans alike.
