My goodness, that's nostalgic. JHC.. my 90s companion, because of the rush to finish up and collect another one, had to spend the whole night reading it to the end.. My favorite.. THIS WAY FOR A SHROUD the killer had a penchant for killing and concealing it and making it more natural. The most boring of his books yet was MALLORY! have read Al his books back then, now phone and social media had done and is still killing the reading culture. |

An inspired writer who was said to have barely traveled to the US yet most of his scenes were in the US. A high IQ person, it has to be said... 1 Like |

I read some of his novels as a teenager and I enjoyed them. I wonder why some of his novels where not used to make any blockbuster movies in my generation yet Another writer I liked his novels is Nick Carter. He's a brilliant bahd guy |

As a young man I loved reading that guy books,I was surprised to mention it to a lot of people in Europe and many don't know him and never heard of him. He was a great fictionist,I always wanted to carry out operations based on his ideas,Thank God I didn't,I probably would have ended up in jail. 2 Likes |

Brings back golden memories. The James Hadley Chase and Nick Carter Eras. Those great days when you were Top Gun among your mates if you had any of these Thrillers. I read almost all JHC listed. I carefully looked out for " This way for a Shroud" on OP's listed titles but didn't see it. That title is one of JHC rare copies, and rank as one of my best of his books. The way the Cookie Crumbles. Safer Dead. Coffin From Hongkong, and all Titles that feature Tom Lipsky were my favorites James Hadley is arguably one of the best of his times. Mario Puzo. Jeffrey Archer, Leon Uris, Dean Koontz, Robert Ludlum, Dan Brown are the Masters of Thrillers now. 2 Likes |

First heard about him from a secondary school pal with nom de guerre "Suzi" My first was a " Paw in Bottle " Probably read about 80 on the list. The major issue I had with the books was that they usually have scantily clad blondes holding a pistol in a provocative pose. Other than that. JHC ==Excellente! @Op good one! |

kindnyce: You were an ardent JHC reader to depict these 2fact about " This way for a Shroud" and " Mallory". Mallory was so boringly different that I was almost certain he didn't write it. The write badly twisted the story he ended up confusing himself ( not me) I once read an article that suggested that there were 2 other writers that wrote under the JHC label. I bought the narrative to some extent. 2 Likes |
