Stephen King to publish classic hard-boiled crime novel

I've blogged before about Hard Case Crime, the small press that is reissuing many classic hard-boiled crime novels and commissioning new crime novels in the style of the old, with new cover paintings by the surviving artists of that era.

Now it appears that Hard Case has pulled off an extraordinary coup: Stephen King has written a book for the series, called The Colorado Kid.
