Greenleaf's a good call, Robert Ferrigno wouldn't be bad
either or Jefferson Parker, nor our own Dick Lochte, or even
- at the risk of provoking some serious abuse - Sue Grafton.
If you want a more left field choice, then few people seem to
mention the evident influence of MacDonald on Ellroy -
especially in The Big Nowhere - but probably the writer I'd
most like to see have a crack would be Ken Nunn
