Re: RARA-AVIS: Paul Kavanagh

Craig,

There are three Paul Kavanagh books, but only the first features him as a character. Triumph of Evil is about a cold hit man who seems to have begun to thaw. The third book is Not Comin' Home to You, loosely based on the Charlie Starkweather/Caril Fugate spree killings (also the inspiration for the great movie Badlands). It's okay, but the first two are much better.

You can drop the question mark after "aka Lawrence Block?" They were definitely written by Block and have been republished under his name. Unfortunately, the Such Men reprint deletes the introductions.
