    Product Information

    'Puts Chandler to shame ...... Hughes is the master we keep turning to'Sara Paretsky After the war, cynical veteran Dix Steele has moved to L.A., a city terrified by a strangler preying on young women. Bumping into an old friend, now a detective working on the case, Dix is thrilled by closely following the progress of the police. And meeting his new neighbour, sultry and beautiful actress Laurel Gray, brings even more excitement into his life. But the strangler is still prowling the streets - and Laurel may be in more danger than she realises...... In a Lonely Place was adapted for film in 1950, with Humphrey Bogart as Dix Steele.

      • A disturbing read

        To say that I enjoyed this book would give the wrong impression. Am pleased to have read it, but if it correctly describes the turmoil and delusions of the thought processes of psychopaths it is disturbing. Well constructed and with haunting descriptions it deserves to be the Penguin Modern Classic it is.
