Opis

The Cold Handshake by Alan Bain. A noirish tale recalling the paperback Era. Pacific City, 1952. Crooked. Dirty. Contemptible. Dangerous. That's Largo. That's Pacific City. A grifter in the most remote, the most sleazy city in the world. Largo's life changed forever when he met the girl of his dreams: Rita Fleischer. This was a dame to take things real smooth with. A dame to live for. Now he could forget the scams, the mob bosses and the dirty money. Or he should've. Then Rita was murdered. She became a phantom, a ghost. Rita haunted Largo. And she'd haunt him all the way to the electric chair. . . Reader's caution: This story contains adult themes and frequent language that may cause offence.
