<<One thing I love about "Red Harvest" is the way a new
bad guy turns up
almost every time you turn around. Corruption is in the air
rather than
in
a particular person.>>
This is also very present in Raoul Whitfield's classic novel
"Green
Ice". Utter corruption and, in the case of Whitfield, a
pessimism that
is pure noir. I consider this novel to be the first (and one
of the
greatest) in the noir style.
