I'm reading The Jade Figirine now. I remember buying it when it came out in 1972, in onwe of the Doubleday bookstores in Manhattan. Also read the Kendrick and Coffey books. I met Robert C. Dennis. He was a very nice man, and a good writer. Dennis Lynds (Carl Dekker) was a great friend of mine. I correspopnded with him before I was published, after I read Act of fear, the first Dan Fortune book.
