RE: RARA-AVIS: greetings from a new digest subscriber
I picked up the Marlowe book you mention from a remainder table. I
haven't read it yet, but it's on my short list.
At the same time, I bought "Kill the Boss Goodbye" by Peter Rabe. A very
terse psychological profile of a gang boss losing his marbles. Pretty
good. Can anyone recommend any other Rabe novels?--Duane Spurlock
