Bill,
You've intrigued me with this JD MacDonald title. Are
the
"people who're nver seen" you refer to never introduced
beforehand in the plot by name or are they not viewed by
McGee and Meyers?

P.S. I finished Ross Macdonald's THE IVORY GRIN which was
commented on the rara-avis archives. The rich lady client
makes her obligatory appearance but the plot doesn't really
involve her that much. Archer is out smashing mouths and
blasting his piece. Also, there's an interesting (at least to
me)twist at the ending.
Currently reading Craig Holden's THE RIVER SORROW with dj
blurbs from Mr. Crumley and Mr. Ellroy.
