Hue and Cry by the late Thomas B. Dewey (
SYKM,
Thrilling Detective profile), the 1st in his Singer Batts murder mystery series starring a Shakespearean scholar running an Ohio hotel, originally published in 1944, according to SYKM.
Thomas B. Dewey wrote four novels featuring Singer Batts, bibliophile and hotel owner. Singer prefers the company of his books and an occasional foray into the Lonely Hearts Club world. But he keeps getting embroiled in murders!
The Boston Herald called the first book “well paced and lively,” and The Saturday Review called it, “lively, lurid, and outspoken.” Author Dorothy Hughes said: “It’s murder and mayhem and hold onto your hats. Amusing and amazing.”
