THIEF EXTRAORDINAIRE? Gerald Kersh (1912–1957) wrote amazing novels and hundreds of short stories about the weird and wonderful people he met during his lifetime. The most intriguing was Karmesin, a master thief and self–confessed genius. His robberies, cons and double–crosses involve split–second timing, almost supernatural foresight, and spine-tingling nerve. But is he telling Kersh the truth? For the first time all 17 short stories are collected in a single volume so that you can decide for yourself. This collection is edited and introduced by Paul Duncan, who has been researching Gerald Kersh for over 10 years in preparation for a biography. The cover painting is by Carol Heyer, and the design by Deborah Miller.
