PaperBack: “Naked Villainy”

Part of a series honoring the late author and blogger Bill Crider.



Naked Villainy, by Carl G. Hodges (Farrell Publishing, 1951). Author Carl Garrett Hodges (1902-1964) penned a number of novels, as well as short stories featuring newspaper sports reporter Dwight “Di” Berke and his wife, photographer Gail Berke. Naked Villainy was apparently one in a series of novels inspired by the CBS radio and television program series Suspense.
