George V. Higgins (1939–1999) was an American author, lawyer, newspaper columnist and college professor. The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1970) opens the catalogue and established the Boston noir line of gangster tales that later writers and films took up. More than thirty books came after it, among them The Digger's Game (1973), Cogan's Trade (1974), also published as Killing Them Softly, and the Jerry Kennedy legal novels, Kennedy for the Defense (1981) among them. Thirty-two titles are catalogued through 2004, with Boston, lawyers, politicians and the Mafia as standing subjects.

George Wallace has two catalogued books, twelve years apart: Operation Golden Dawn (2013) and Cold Is the Deep (2025). No series groups them, and the directory lists the catalogue as ongoing.

Georges Simenon

187 books• 5 series

Inspector Maigret, a policeman in Paris, is the centre of Georges Simenon's crime fiction. The catalogue holds 187 books, beginning in 1931 with Pietr the Latvian. Short novels are the form, at a median 169 pages, and the 1950s were the densest decade. Standalone novels, short stories and non-fiction sit beside the Maigret run, most of it translated from the French.
