Ruff Morgan
Created by Jimmy Shannon
An alternative classic. New York private dick RUFF "RUFFBOY" slugs and stumbles his way through The Devil's Passkey (1952), the usual post-Spillane mix of sex and violence.
Bill Pronzini, in Gun in Cheek, refers to Ruff as possibly "the least intelligent private eye ever." Faint praise indeed.
