5.0 out of 5 stars Rough sketch of the Killer inside me Sheriff, 4 Feb 1998
By A Customer
For the most part this Thompson book examines the menial jobs of his youth and is as colorful as his books tend to be, with characters of questionable moral focus. Besides his obvious flare for the genre this book includes a real gem in the description of the author's first encounter with a texas officier who would provide Thompson with the model for the main character in the killer inside, for this reason alone the book is well worth the read.
