Telos Publishing is proud to bring back into print, after more than fifty years' absence, what most fans agree is one of the very best of the classic era Hank Janson novels. Accused was the most heavily scrutinised book of all in the infamous Hank Janson obscenity trials at the Old Bailey in the mid-1950s, and as a result was effectively banned from British bookshops. Now readers can judge for themselves whether or not this absorbing tale of sadistic cruelty, illicit passion and violent murder really was obscene! As usual, this Telos Publishing reissue comes unedited, and complete with legendary illustrator Reginald Heade's wonderful original artwork cover. With their erotic pin-up covers and hardboiled crime tales, the Hank Janson pulp paperback novels were a British publishing sensation in the 1940s and 1950s, selling millions of copies to readers craving escapism from post-war austerity. Includes an introduction by pulp historian and writer Steve Holland.
