Is it hot! I ain't never been in Hell, but I'm tellin' you that I reckon it ain't any hotter than this Californian desert in July.Special agent Lemmy Caution is back to tell the story in his inimitable vernacular. This is a tale from the hard-boiled school, spiced with romance, murder, counterfeiting and mistaken identity, spanning the country from New York City to Palm Springs in its stormy passage. The careful reader will need to eliminate more than one red herring to keep the facts straight; but the solution is both ingenious and [...] Don't Care was originally published in 1937.'Peter Cheyney is the Damon Runyon of crime' The Times

Über den Autor

Reginald Evelyn Peter Southouse Cheyney was born in Whitechapel in the East End of London. After serving as a lieutenant during the First World War, he worked as a police reporter and freelance investigator until he found success with his first Lemmy Caution novel. In his lifetime Cheyney was a prolific and wildly successful author, selling, in 1946 alone, over 1.5 million copies of his books. His work was also enormously popular in France, and inspired Jean-Luc Godard's character of the same name in his dystopian sci-fi film Alphaville. The master of British noir, in Lemmy Caution Peter Cheyney created the blueprint for the tough-talking, hard-drinking pulp fiction detective.
