Stop

Garry Dean
Created by Paul Whelton
"You dig me up a good yarn, brother, and I'll
kiss you."
-- Dean chats up a source in Call the Lady Indiscreet.
GARRY DEAN is the hard-nosed big city newshawk for The
Press-Bulletin who'll do anything for a story, in these delightful
slices of American cheese. Like one of the blurbs, right there
on the back cover, says, "Paul Whelton supplies a dizzy plenty
of action."
Who am I to argue with a recommendation like that?
Author Paul Whelton was born in Boston, and worked as a rewrite
man on several large city newspapers himself. He wrote six books
featuring Whelton, including several for Graphic, one of the most
notorious publishers of what Bill Pronzini has dubbed "alternative
classics."
