I agree, having said it many times before. JDM wasn't just a
great crime writer--he was a great writer.

APRIL EVIL jumps to mind. ON THE RUN would have jumped to
mind, but I had to go look up the title--the ending of this

picked up a bunch of the non-McGees, and I'll probably use GM

some of them.
