The Daily Telegraph recently proclaimed him one of the fifty greatest crime writers of all time. Find out why in this spicy brew of lust, deception, double crosses, perversion, sexual violence and forbidden desire.
A pocket-sized paperback and a one sitting read from Lawrence Block with some fireside tales of lust, accompanied by flatulence!
A priest recounts a tale of a married couple.
A policeman recalls the fate of his jealous partner.
A soldier talks of a military man who got his thrills through taking life.
A doctor talks of a rapist and his victim.
Interesting tales, all of them each with a twist...... sex, revenge, infidelity, incest, arson, war, siblings, prison, camping, death and a helluva lot more, all laced with a splash of humour and a sprinkling of excitement.
A cracking little book.
