He is perhaps best remembered for his mystery Poe Must Die, in which 19th-century American author Edgar Allan Poe appears as a protagonist.
He was a prolific author, publishing forty books: two non-fiction and thirty-eight fiction. He was nominated for an Edgar Award for They've Killed Anna, from his popular "Harker File" series about an investigative reporter.
In 2000, the Black Caucus of the American Library Association presented Olden with the Literary Fiction Honor Award for his New York crime novel The Ghost.
