YOU PLAY THE BLACK AND THE RED COMES UP

by Eric Knight; originally published as by Richard Hallas

Berkeley: Black Lizard Books, 1986.

First edition thus: a paperback.

Fine, unread copy in illustrated wraps with artwork by Kirwan.

Introduction by David Feinberg.

Only crime novel by the pen-named Brit Eric Knight is a high water mark in depression-era hard-boiled fiction and earns Hallas a seat alongside McCoy, Anderson, and Cain in the tough-guy pantheon; oddly, Knight's other work of note is LASSIE, COME HOME.
