Stark House Update

Hello Mystery Booksellers & Readers:
Well, my break-time is over, and it's back to work. When SCB Distributors took over distribution of Stark House Press, everything was pushed back to their Fall list. But Fall is here, and the first new title is the too-long-delayed A TRIO OF GOLD MEDALS, three classic thrillers from the Golden Age of Paperback Publishing.
This 3-in-1 volume features The Vengeance Man by Dan J. Marlowe, Park Avenue Tramp by Fletcher Flora and The Prettiest Girl I Ever Killed by Charles Runyon (isbn: 1-933586-14-1, price: $15.95, pub date: Oct 2007); all orginally published in the late 50's and early 60's by Gold Medal Books.
Charles Kelly contributes two informative introductions to the Marlowe and Fletcher novels, and Ed Gorman conducts a new interview with Runyon for his part of the book. Author bibliographies are included.
This book was originally scheduled for early Spring at $23.95, but now that we are using offset printing, the price has come down considerably.
If you are interested in ordering this book, please place your order with your SCB Distributors rep or call them at 1-800-729-6423. And if you have any problem ordering, please let me know and I will sort everything out for you.
Thanks, as always, for your continued support of Stark House Press, and I hope you agree that this is one book that is worth the wait.
Next up: Russell James--UNDERGROUND / COLLECTED STORIES, modern noir that has never been published in the U.S. before. But more on that later....
Cheers,
Greg Shepard
Stark House Press
