Henry Kane

    Henry Kane, původně právník, se proslavil jako plodný autor detektivních románů. Jeho díla se často zaměřují na postavy soukromých detektivů, jako je Peter Chambers, kterého ztvárnil v desítkách příběhů. Kane mistrně spřádá napínavé zápletky a vytváří postavy, které čtenáře vtáhnou do světa zločinu a vyšetřování. Jeho schopnost udržet čtenáře v napětí až do poslední stránky je důvodem, proč je považován za jednoho z významných autorů žánru.

      Manhunt, June 1953
    • Peter Chambers is a private richard who has a real affinity for trouble. He hasn't any notion at all who polished off the nasty blonde with the round hole between her eyes—or the little man swinging by the neck from a bedroom window. Peter has strong incentives for finding out the answers—partly because the only thing he can do is break the case wide open before the going gets too rough; but mainly because his fee is Miami Moonbeam, six feet of ravishing, red-haired woman.
