Book Reviews of Blackmailer (Hard Case Crime)
Book Review: classic pulp fiction
Summary: 5 Stars
Definitely an old-fashioned pulp thriller from the noir era, and that's a good thing. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere, not 1 but 2 beautiful deadly dames, a valuable last manuscript from a deceased Hemingway-esque blowhard author, thugs and goons, and a well-meaning but outgunned 'everyman' hero. No HEA here but what did you expect?
Summary of Blackmailer (Hard Case Crime)
From the Academy Award nominated screenwriter of Breakfast at Tiffany's and The Manchurian Candidate comes a breathtaking story of murder and mischief?It's the story of a big-game hunter, fisherman, fighter, visitor to Cuba, drunk, and Nobel Prize-winning author, recently deceased of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, whose final unpublished manuscript could fetch a mint?
It's the story of a short, balding man with a high-pitched voice and a vicious wit, whose cocktail parties are the talk of the town, especially when a beautiful woman dies at one of them?
It's the story of Hollywood?s sexiest starlet, who manages to conceal things even when she?s wearing nothing but a towel?
?and it?s the story of Dick Sherman, intrepid New York publisher, on the trail of the literary find of the century ? and the killer who will stop at nothing to keep it from being found.
