Bring ’Em Back Alive
As usual on Fridays, the crime-fiction blogosphere is filled with write-ups about more-or-less “forgotten books.” Today’s reading rediscoveries include: Fire Lake, by Jonathan Valin; The Criminalist, by Eugene Izzi; Blues for the Prince, by Bart Spicer; 77 Rue Paradis, by Gil Brewer; Watcher in the Shadows, by Geoffrey Household; True Detective, by Max Allan Collins; and The Big Knockover, by Dashiell Hammett. Click over to Patti Abbott’s blog for an exhaustive list of today’s participants, plus a handful of other unjustly overlooked works, including James Ross’ They Don’t Dance Much (1940).
