The Day the Music Died is the first in the Sam McCain series by Ed Gorman. The series is the most nostalgic and realistic portrayal of small-town America as it was in the late 50s and Ramble House promises to bring all eight of them back into print. This book also includes, as a gift to all Ed's fans, his short story featuring Sam McCain, The Christmas Kitten.

American readers will rarely see these two thrillers from the 30s by Britain's Roland Daniel. THE SIGNAL (1933) begins with a rich man receiving in the mail five beans (!) just before he's dispatched with a pistol by an unknown hand. Sounds like something Harry Stephen Keeler might have opined. And Fu Manchu has nothing on the inscrutable and titular Wu Fang, whose sordid machinations threaten a young American woman, her Secret Service beau, his cockney sidekick and Superintendent Bill Saville of the Yard. The wily celestial, introduced in 1934, has picked up some new tortures by 1937, and can't wait to try them on the whole crowd.
