Frank Arthur Author Biography - Information About the Author
Frank Arthur is a pseudonym used by Arthur Frank Ebert who was born in 1902 and died 1984 according to the British Library, he's listed in Hubin and his main series charactter is Inspector Spearpoint.
The first book is very difficult to find in first edition state, especially so in dust jacket, I don't recall ever physically seeing a copy.
The other books are obtainable though, albeit not common, especially in bookshops or at book fairs, online specialist book delaers offering the best chance.
Dust jackets are attractive, for the period at least, if not exactly classic
