Hi, I'm new here and new to the hardboiled/noir genre, and
discovering just how much I have to learn. Anyway, I went to
a used book sale this past weekend armed with a list from
this group. Thanks, everyone! I found a hardback book
entitled "With Murder for Some" by H.C. Huston. What a ride!
By the end of the first chapter the protag, who was trying to
disappear had witnessed a plane crash - one he was supposed
to be on - and held at gun point by two different people. The
ending was slightly disappointing, but as I thought about
that and several things about the read, I wondered if H.C.
was a woman writer using a man's name. The copyright was 1953
by Howard C. Huston and the book was published by The
Macmillan Company. I've done a google search and checked a
few books I have but can find out nothing about this author.
Does anyone here know who he is or is he just one of those
authors who's slipped through the cracks?
