Although David Dodge is best known as a novelist, he also wrote short stories. Various magazines, such as Liberty, Collier’s, Blue Book, Esquire, Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine, and Popular Detective, published his short fiction throughout his career. Several of his novels also saw the first light of print in periodicals. Notably, To Catch a Thief was first published in Cosmopolitan, before it was issued in book form. None of the short fiction has ever been collected in book form. Two unpublished stories, “Bermuda Triangle” and “A Matter of Considerable Interest” are among his personal papers.
