Product Description

Product Description

The Spinner is dead, bashed on the head and left to rot in a river. One of his three blackmail victims must have been the killer - Scudder is determined to nail them. Henry Prager has paid enough for the sins of his daughter, and begs Scudder not to destroy his shaky business or the fragile girl's reformed life. Beverly Etheridge cheerfully admitted all the sex acts Scudder had seen in the photos and she promises to show him a few more. Theodore Huysendahl offers Scudder enough money to choke even a blackmailer's greed, a proposition no sane man would turn down. Scudder's code of honour demands that one of them will pay... --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars a good book, you won't put it down!, 26 Dec 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Time To Murder And Create (Matt Scudder Mystery) (Paperback)
A good book, well worth 5 stars. The characters really do come alive. (You can almost hear spinner playing with his coin!) You won't put this book down, but after finishing it you want to read more. One piece of advice, make sure you don't start reading it unless you have a lot of free time, cos you won't put it down!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars gotham revisited, 27 Dec 2001
This review is from: Time To Murder And Create (Matt Scudder Mystery) (Paperback)
never knew i could like crime fiction til i read block. prose so spare it's hardly there. Scudder is a genius creation, a compulsive read. The ending had me confused though. Or did it? Maybe I spent too long drinking whisky and coffee that day. Or was that Scudder hinself?
Watch out. |Lawrence Block wants you to read his books. You may well do.
