Day Keene

    28. März 1904 – 9. Januar 1969

    Day Keene etablierte sich in den 1950er Jahren als einer der führenden Autoren von Paperback-Krimis. Seine Erzählungen spielten häufig in den schwülen Landschaften Südf લોरिडाs oder in Sumpfstädten Louisianas und handelten oft von einem zu Unrecht beschuldigten Mann auf der Flucht, der entschlossen ist, seinen Namen reinzuwaschen. Keene verstand es meisterhaft, spannungsgeladene Geschichten mit atmosphärischer Dichte zu schaffen.
