Bain takes the reader on a journey from Coffee, Tea or Me and the best selling comedy series it spawned to the biographies of Veronica Lake, legendary talk show king Long John Nebel, and top model and CIA mind-control subject Candy Jones; from wildly successful murder mystery novels based on the TV show Murder, She Wrote to one of the most bizarre gang wars in U.S. history, Charlie and the Shawneetown Dame.
Murder mysteries, comedies, investigative journalism, westerns, biographies, historical romances, and Mafia novels-Donald Bain has written all in a remarkable career spanning 90 books as an author or ghostwriter. Bain is a graduate of Purdue University. He went on to work professionally in broadcasting and co-hosted more than 200 shows in New York with Long John Nebel, then king of late-night talk radio.
