"Abel's brisk, sparely written thriller reads more like an accomplished 10th novel than a debut. Jack Walsh, a cop who has been hitting the bottle since his partner died in an aborted drug bust, wakes up in a Boston hospital after an automobile accident to learn that the other car's driver--the only son of local crime boss Johnny D'Angelo--is dead, which means Walsh is as good as dead himself. After resigning from the force and serving time in a state medical facility, Walsh holes up in his hometown, Athol, Mass., to wait for the Mafia hit he knows is coming. Unknown to Walsh, the DA's office has him under surveillance; they're using him for bait, hoping to get evidence against D'Angelo when the mobster comes gunning for him.

Minneapolis: MN: Fedogan & Bremer, 2000. In conjunction with Cave's 90th birthday F&B has published this collection of his hard-boiled Peter Kane detective stories. Cave's wry (or is it rye?) twist was to make Kane a pie-eyed private eye, who solved crimes at a staggering pace while fighting hangovers and hoodlums alike. Kane, the ace detective of the Beacon Agency, appeared in a popular series of nine adventures, written between 1934 and 1942 and appeared in "Dime Detective". His plots often bordered on weird menance fiction. One of only one thousand copies of the trade edition.. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Illus. by Jill Bauman.
