Two Meet Trouble

(1938)
A novel by

 
 
All alone in a remote cottage on Dartmoor Gabrielle Melsom froze when she heard the distant prison siren wail, the siren that meant only one thing, a prisoner was on the run. A prisoner who along with his accomplice would soon be taking shelter in her cottage, a prisoner with an awful connection to the Melsom family, a connection that in the confines of the desolate cottage would manifest in a terrifying showdown with Gabrielle's brother Michael and his mysterious friend Klimmer, a man with his own dark past.

Fiction maestro John Creasey ( 1908 - 1973 ) was and remains an enigma. He was one of the biggest selling and (by most measures) the most prolific producer of fiction, of the 20th century, writing over 620 novels in both his own name and through over 25 different pseudonyms including; Michael Halliday, Norman Deane, Gordon Ashe, Jeremy York, JJ Maric and Anthony Morton.

Creasey's popularity is as staggering as his output with book sales approaching 100 million copies across 29 languages in over 100 countries. At the peak of his commercial success Creasey was selling 4 million books a year in the UK and USA alone. Protagonists such as Gideon of Scotland Yard, The Baron and The Toff are lynchpins of British post war crime fiction, and several Creasey works were adapted for TV and film.
