Better Read Than Dead

In addition to Russell Atwood’s recollection on this page of Freak, by Michael Collins (aka Dennis Lynds), the blogosphere is filled today with other “forgotten books” recommendations.

Among the mystery and crime fiction offerings are Point of Honour, by Madeleine E. Robins; Faces in the Dark, by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac; Night & Fear, by Cornell Woolrich; Plunder the Sun, by David Dodge; Maigret and the Madwoman, by Georges Simenon; It’s Always Four O’Clock and Iron Man, by W.R. Burnett; and About the Murder of the Clergyman’s Mistress, by Anthony Abbot.

Series organizer Patti Abbott has several more fine book picks in her own blog, as well as a complete list of today’s participating critics.
