I tend to browse in local thrifts, one of the few options for
books up here in the north. I recently came across a novel by
E. Richard Johnson . MONGO'S BACK IN TOWN turns out to be his
second novel. The first, SILVER STREET won the EDGAR
AWARD.
With some digging, I came acorss one good reerence for
Johnson:

There is also an inteview on a French noir site.
After some further digging, I managed to locate copies of all
fo his work, including a non-fiction survival book. Too bad
he is not better known. Granted, not all the novels are good.
One is pretty bad but the rest do have much to recommend
them.
