RARA-AVIS: Re: Megan Abbott's family tree

I'm interpreting that Spillane double arrow as some writers (and critics) interpretation of Spillane, like A.I. Bezzerides' screenplay for Kiss Me, Deadly, David Karp's novel Hardman, and in a more positive light, because psychotics aren't all bad, Earle Basinsky's
"Death Is a Cold, Keen Edge".

Yes, Juri, you are right about two categories "Rise of the paperback" and "Crime novels/thrillers". I guess the difference is the medium and not the message.
