Hi everyone, I'm new to the list and have been lurking for a
while. I would love to participate in a Ross Macdonald month.
I'm fairly new to the genre, but since the spring I've been
reading as much hard-boiled and PI fiction as I can get. I've
only read to Archer novels: THE IVORY GRIN and FIND A VICTIM,
and the collection THE NAME IS ARCHER, so any thing else will
be a new experience for me. Chuck
