"Oklahoma Police Headquarters calling all cruisers, all Highway Police. . . ."

"Look out for Lemmy Caution who has to-day broken jail at Oklahoma city, after killing a guard and deputy-Sheriff.

"Last seen proceeding in the direction of the State line near Tahlequah. Is probably proceeding to Joplin. Be careful. This man is dangerous!

"He is driving a dark green Ford V8 Sedan, with the near side driving window broken. The car is carrying Missouri State plates but these will probably be changed. Caution is armed. He is a killer.

"Caution was serving a twenty years' sentence for the shooting of an Oklahoma State policeman last year.

"Oklahoma Police Headquarters calling all police cruisers, all Highway Police. . . . Look out for this man. Warn garages between Tulsa and Tahlequah that he will probably need gas. Go get him boys! Go get him boys!"

This Man is Dangerous was originally published in 1937.

'Peter Cheyney is the Damon Runyon of crime' The Times


Cheyney, Peter: - Reginald Evelyn Peter Southouse Cheyney was born in Whitechapel in the East End of London. After serving as a lieutenant during the First World War, he worked as a police reporter and freelance investigator until he found success with his first Lemmy Caution novel. In his lifetime Cheyney was a prolific and wildly successful author, selling, in 1946 alone, over 1.5 million copies of his books. His work was also enormously popular in France, and inspired Jean-Luc Godard's character of the same name in his dystopian sci-fi film Alphaville. The master of British noir, in Lemmy Caution Peter Cheyney created the blueprint for the tough-talking, hard-drinking pulp fiction detective.
