Be Kind to the Killer is a 1952 detective novel by the British writer Henry Wade.
A review by Julian Symons in the Times Literary Supplement observed that "Mr. Wade’s writing is pedestrian and at times faintly comic" although concluded "But Be Kind to the Killer is a sound piece of work, which contains some interesting details of police procedure."
When his childhood friend and fellow police officer is killed on duty, Detective Constable Henry Campion takes it on his own shoulders to singlehandedly bring those responsible to justice.
