In honor of The Rap Sheet’s first birthday, we invited more than 100 crime writers, book critics, and bloggers from all over the English-speaking world to choose the one crime/mystery/thriller novel that they thought had been “most unjustly overlooked, criminally forgotten, or underappreciated over the years.” Their choices can be found here.

Yet another I need to find, along with McGivern's NIGHT EXTRA, cited in your recent CRIMEREADS roundup of reporters in CF...where I was mildly surprised that you didn't touch on Donald Westlake's brief series beginning with TRUST ME ON THIS...
Hey, Todd: Drat! You're right, I forgot about Westlake's two Sara Joslyn novels. https://thewestlakereview.wordpress.com/tag/sara-joslyn/
Cheers,
Jeff
And the two short stories, as well...a fine omnibus, waiting to appen...
