Forgotten Book: Killer's Caress - a SPICY DETECTIVE Novel

I've always been intrigued by this ad, which ran in the Spicy mags in the late 30s. The original edition (left), published in 1936, is extremely scarce, so I was pleased to learn that Black Dog Books has just issued a reprint.

Johnny Harding, the randy romeo of this novel, also appeared in a series of short stories in Spicy Detective, one of which is presented below. Author Cary Moran also did a series about a guy named Mike Cockrell. (Good porn star names, eh?)

For details on the new edition (right), visit the Black Dog Books site HERE.

And now, for your full-blooded entertainment, with no punches pulled and no beating around the bush, here's "Lottery of Death" from the May, 1936 issue of Spicy Detective. And remember Johnny Harding's motto: Don't shoot until you see the whites of their thighs.
