Recensioner

En riktig klassiker. Inte ett enda ord är skrivet i onödan. Rått, hårt, skitigt men ändå mjukt och lent. Storyn i denna är liiiite tunn och därför endast 4 av 5 i betyg.

Mycket bra. Man märker vart James Ellroy och Michael Connelly hittar sin inspiration.

Walter Gage is hired by his fiancee to find Mrs Penruddock's stolen pink pearls. His investigations need to be discreet because it would be embarrassing if word gets out that they're fakes...
'Pearls are a Nuisance' and two more brilliant short stories, 'Finger Man' and 'The King in Yellow', plus Chandler's essay 'The Simple Art of Murder', make up this volume.
