Steve Harrison's Casebook

Presenting the complete collection of Robert E. Howard's private eye stories starring Steve Harrison! Everything in this volume - stories, drafts, synopses - was pulled directly from Howard's own typescripts, including an early draft of "Graveyard Rats," the most terrifying of Harrison's adventures. In these pages you will enter a nightmarish world that blends weird mystery and heart-stopping horror, with Steve Harrison as your guide, a powerful man who is more likely to tear into a fight with a mace or a battle axe than a gun. Harrison has more in common with Howard's sword-swinging Conan than Hammett's Continental Op, but he helps to establish the roots of a noir style that would later find success with Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer.

Harrison might walk the mean streets and back alleys of the 1930s, but he has the soul of a barbaric savage, possessed by the crimson instinct for slaughter.
