Renee Raymond, known worldwide under the pseudonym James Hadley Chase, became famous in the genre of “cool” detective. He came from the family of a retired British officer, and his father envisioned a career as a scientist. But at the age of 18, the future writer left his studies and left his parental home forever. He constantly changed jobs and tried many professions before becoming a book distributor, thoroughly studying the book business from the inside. I had to knock on no less than a hundred thousand doors, and behind each of them could meet any of the characters of his future novels. And so much had to get wet in the rain, that now no one can force me to leave the house in damp weather. Over half a century of writing, Chase created about ninety novels, which enjoyed constant success among readers of different countries, and about fifty of them were filmed.
This edition publishes novels written by Chase in the early 1950s, Life is Short and Men Do.
