I'm reading _The Laughing Fox_ by Frank Gruber, a fast-paced
thing about craps, fox breeding and murder. It features
Johnny Fletcher and Sam Cragg; Cragg is very muscular and
they make money by selling books describing how any
ninety-pound recovering TB patient can become a he-man.
Fletcher is also good with dice, women and getting things for
free.
I don't know much about Gruber. Are these recurring
characters? If not, did he have any, or did everything stand
alone?
