The Kid I Killed Last Night

And Other Stories

------------------------------------------------------------

by Day Keene

-------------------------------

 

Ramble House is pleased to continue this series of short story collections by Gunard Hjertstedt, aka Day Keene.

 -------------------------------------------------

David Laurence Wilson has unearthed thirteen more stories by Gunard Hjertstedt—most famously known by his pseudonym Day Keene —and has written an introduction putting Hjertstedt’s life and work into  perspective. Included in this volume is ‘Ashes’, Hjertstedt’s first published story which appeared in a 1930 issue of 10-Story Book edited by Harry Stephen Keeler. The other stories are culled from issues of Detective Fiction Weekly, Detective Tales, Dime Mystery and New Detective published between 1931 and 1950. These stories show the ongoing strength and invention of Gunard Hjertstedt’s writing and his ability to transcend hackneyed formulas and continue to produce convincing and rivetting fiction for readers of yore....and of today!
