RARA-AVIS: Latimer

Way back when, I asked a local bookseller for private eye
novel
recommendations after having read all of the Chandler, Hammett
and Ross
MacDonald I could get my hands on. He handed me The Fifth Grave
by
Jonathan Latimer (along with the great Paul Pine novels by
John
Evans/Howard Browne). I liked it okay, but he was right that I
should
try to find a copy of the uncut editon, Solomon's Vineyard.
When I
finally did read the unexpurgated version, I found it to be a
sick,
twisted, kinky private eye novel. In other words, my kind of
book.
