Again the Ringer
A collection of very short stories about Henry Arthur Milton, an anti-hero decades before the term came into use.
Quickly-paced and sardonic in tone, they're a fun read. Every so often the author will wink and say: "This is an outrageous plot device or an even more outrageous coincide but keep it under your hat, old man, it's necessary to get the story going." If you can smile and wink back you'll enjoy the riddle.
