Sing Sing Nights by Harry Stephen Keeler
Three men in Sing Sing -- all writers -- awaiting execution for the same crime. The body of the victim held only two bullets -- one of the men is innocent. How can they find out before morning which one of them should get the Governor's pardon?
-Sing Sing Nights- is a startling example or Harry Stephen Keeler's uncanny power to unravel the most involved plots, and during the unravelling depen the mystery until the very end of the story.
He's America's most forgotten novelist, the victim of a publisher's conspiracy to cull out any writers who don't produce quick, easy-to-read, dumbed-down prose for the public. Harry began writing because he enjoyed it and quickly established his own style. He concocted intricate stories incorporating ethnic characters (who spoke in ludicrous dialects), 1930s and 1940s pop culture, and his favorite MacGuffin: skulls. Harry preferred skulls to DNA proof, which modern writers have.
You'll never be the same after reading a Keeler, and now you can read as many as you desire thanks to Ramble House. And there's more!
