It was the 1950s in postwar America, and paperback books were the
hot new product in the publishing industry. Of course, to stand out
from the crowd and sell, one needed a gimmick. Into this newly
exuberant market came a publishing house named Ace Books, with the
seductive promise of two books for the price of one. It also had
the eye-catching premise of two separate covers, joined at the
spine like Siamese twins. Finished with one book? Flip the
paperback over and begin again with a new novel, complete with its
own package. It was something completely different -- and it sold!
"Double Trouble" tours the short yet popular era of the Ace Mystery
Doubles, and includes both author-title and title indexes for easy
reference.
