Don't know much about Chaber, but a factoid rises from the
murk: I read somewhere he was the first fiction writer to use
LSD as a major plot device, in a 1955 novel called THE
SPLINTERED MAN. I haven't read the book, but I've seen a
reprint of the pb cover somewhere. It shows a guy in his
skivvies being held by a couple of heavies while another
heavy comes at him with a nasty looking hypodermic
needle.
