I think I saw Shayne's book recently. I know I saw the Shell Scott anthology. Think I should pick it up? BTW, where do you like with no A/C? Here in Houston, well... Oh, and I posted my review of Cain's The Postman Always Rings Twice over at my blog. Very good book. Bruce,

The puzzles are always substandard. Always. Instead, read them for the prose and the character interaction. I've read a couple of Oscar Sail mysteris, and some of them are all right. Not as good as Doc, but better than his later novels like The Lady Is Afraid. Nero Wolfe is not to be enjoyed for the puzzle aspect of the mystery. The puzzles are always substandard. Always.
