About This Item
Toronto: Harlequin Books, 1953. Softcover. Very good. No. 262. 189, [3] p. 17 cm. Pictorial paperback. Red text block edges. A few creases. Pages browning.
In the early 1950s, Charles Ross Graham wrote three pulp-noir novels under the pseudonym David Montrose: "The Crime on Cote des Neiges" (1951), "Murder over Dorval" (1952), and "The Body on Mount Royal" (1953). By 1967, Graham had moved to Toronto where he worked as a freelance writer. After a hiatus of 15 years, he wrote a fourth David Montrose book, "Gambling with Fire" (1969) in which the hero was a displaced Austrian aristocrat named Franz Loebek. Graham died in 1968, shortly before his last book was released.
