Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'If you must go down those mean streets, walk softly, but walk a big dog. 'Perenially broke Doan is a short, chubby little man with corn-yellow hair who doesn't exactly look like he's going to set the world on fire. His clothes are frequently rumpled, because he tends to sleep in them, and he's been known to drink a prodigious amount of alcohol. [And] while there have plenty of dogs in mystery fiction, there's never been one quite like Carstairs. He's not just any Great Dane; he's so big that Doan only half-jokingly figures he really ought to be considered another species. He's definitely in charge, despite Doan's best efforts. . It's fortunate, then, that as a sleuth Carstair rarely barks up the wrong tree.' - Kevin Burton Smith, The Thrilling Detective Website This volume collects the first two Doan and Carstairs books: the novella Holocaust House, and the novel The Mouse in the Mountain.

First Edition
First edition. First edition. Author's first book. Fine, bright, tight copy in dust jacket with light professional restoration to the spine ends. Introduces Doan and Carstairs, an unusual sleuthing team. Doan is a private eye who won Carstairs, a Great Dane, in a crap game. Set in the village of Los Altos, Mexico, an earthquake causes widespread destruction and precipitates three cold-blooded murders. Recommended by 1001 Midnights p.189 that says "The scene is Mexico, where Doan has come to persuade a fugitive crook not to return to the United States and give himself up". Scarce.
