The Author:Pseudonym of Reginald Evelyn Peter Southouse Cheyney (1896-1951)Peter Cheyney was–and so far remains–Britain’s leading writer of hard-boiled fiction. He created three memorable characters: Lemmy Caution, a ruthless machine-gun toting FBI agent; Slim Callaghan, a British private eye… and himself.
