  • Laugh out loud ridiculous!!

    It was a story written in 1958 and was of its time - politically incorrect! But it was laugh out loud because it was ridiculous!! But it was fun.

  • One of the best of Graham Greene's novels

    An alternative look at detective stories. The main character is not a super hero, but keeps reader captured. Really funny.
