The Smiling Corpse was written in 1935 by Philip Wylie and features as characters in a murder mystery many of the big names of literature. In fact, S.S. Van Dine, Sax Rohmer, G.K. Chesterton and Dashiell Hammett are the detectives! J. Randolph Cox provides an introduction that places the book in its place historically and you provide the result: enjoyment of a wonderful period when murder was fun.

PERFECT .38 is a collection of two Timothy Dane books by William Ard, THE PERFECT FRAME and .38 (which was also published as YOU CAN'T STOP ME). In Timothy Dane, Ard has created one of the quintessential hardboiled private eyes, a man who doesn't suffer fools, even though they make make him suffer a few beatings before he nails them. Ramble House plans to publish all of the Timothy Dane novels that Ard wrote in the 50s and 60s and at the same time tackle the other detective novels by the under-rated and missed novelist.

WELSH RAREBIT TALES is purportedly a collection of "gastronomic nightmares" written by a gaggle of more or less professional writers who got together to write stories and sample each others cooking. Food aside, their literary output was consistently good and compelling and modern scholar/author Richard A. Lupoff tells you more in his introduction to this 110-year old work by the mysterious Harle Oren Cummins.
