"Murder from the East" is a book that has a bit of international intrigue, the menace of terrorisms, beautiful adventuresses, and a very tough guy private eye, Race Williams, the first in the hard-boiled mode and the model for all those that would follow. The plot, a foreign entity infiltrating the United States, that establishes local groups to operate from, terrorizes the population with senseless cruel murders, and kidnaps Government employees to gain access to secret information, is modern, one could say, contemporary.

In this darkly comic, quite immoral masterwork, Edward is an effete, poor young man who has something in store for his only relative, his wealthy aunt. First published in 1934, this classic mystery is considered a masterpiece of the inverted detective story, in which it is known "whodunit." The question is "how will they catch 'em?" Highly unpredictable, it contains one of the most surprising denouements in all of detective fiction.
