Marvin H. Albert was very appreciated here, both as a person
and as a writer, and a collection of 22 short stories written
in the manner of Albert by famous French crime fiction
writers or specialists was published a few months ago under
the title 'Requiem pour un muckracker'. I only read 4 or 5
due to lack of time, but those ranged from excellent to very
good.
In addition to Marvin H. Albert himself ('L'homme qui
attend') RPUM contains , short stories by (among others) G.J.
Arnaud, Didier Daeninckx, Gerard Delteil, Claude Mesplede,
Jacques Mondoloni, Jean-Hughes Oppel, Jean-Bernard Pouy, Tito
Topin, and Marc Villard. The stories all bear the title of an
existing work by Albert and Patrick Raynal (the publisher of
Serie Noire) wrote the afterword while Roger Martin wrote the
foreword.
The references are: Requiem pour un muckracker, 餩tions
