The Tough Hombre...James M. Cain
HARD-NOSED JAMES M. CAIN books are a trip. The macho author of tough tales could spin some vigorous, sleekly modern prose,,I have recently enjoyed again 'Serenade' (his harsh book on the opera singer having a hard time ) and also I liked 'Postman Always Rings Twice' a Cain book with many twists. The man is uncanny...he writes so well.
