Who Was Brett Halliday?
Hmmm...sounds like a case
for Mike Shayne
Davis Dresser, the original Brett Halliday, actually
wrote only fifty (ONLY!) of the MIKE SHAYNE books, with
a little help from ghostwriters such as Ryerson Johnson, and twenty-seven
more were written by Robert Terrall. And then there were the 300
or so short stories that appeared in MIKE SHAYNE MYSTERY MAGAZINE.
- Robert Arthur
- Michael Avallone
- Hal Blythe and Charlie Sweet
- Edward Y. Breese
