Don Tracy
Apparently you sent from France, where you could find a quite
complete bio and biblio for this writer in Claude Mespl褥's
"Les auteurs de la S鲩e Noire" - definitely recommended as
reference work for HB/Noir researches.
Tracy's most interesting work, and probably the one that will
survive until today, is "How sleeps the Beast" -1937- wherein
you find one of the sinister descriptions of lynching ever.
For the time, and in the USA, this excellent noir novel (of
realistic vein) was an astonishing anti-racist
pamphlet.
He wrote also for other genres than HB/noir.
I cannot tell you exactly what is available today in English
from his rather long list of novels.
