This is one of those books where the characters put down their drinks only long enough to light a cigarette. James Hadley Chase, using a pseudonym, provides us with another noir story with a sometime newspaperman as the hero and two or three or twelve plot twists too many. His uncertain geography is also a lot of fun. Still, he just keeps plugging away and except for an occasional use of "shan't", the language succeeds in achieving the intended hardboiled effect. The plot more or less makes sense, and there is a great scene where a fresh corpse needs to be disposed of - but also proves to be of some use during a fight. The pleasure of Chase's books seems to fade a bit with each one I read, however. Putting words down on paper - his own or someone else's - was too easy for him. And how good he ever top Miss Blandish? näyttää 2/2 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
