LoveReading Says

A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.

By a long arm, the reprint of the month. Charles Williams was, alongside Jim Thompson and David Goodis, one of the savage poets of the noir heyday (DISCLAIMER: I used to publish all three back when) and his torrid tales of small town American South (THE HOT SPOT) and marine thrillers (DEAD CALM) have never been bettered for atmosphere and tension, and have proven plum subjects for many filmmakers. When his wife's lover is shot, John Warren is quickly fingered as the main suspect and struggles to prove otherwise as a whirlpool of betrayal, concealed passions and panic begins to engulf him. Once filmed by Truffaut as 'Vivement Dimanche' and transposed to a less stifling French environment, this is crime writing at its most economic and breathless but no less gripping for that.
