Description
William "Kid" Collins was once a respected boxer. Now he's a drifter, on the run after escaping from a mental institution. One afternoon he meets Fay, a beautiful young widow who is smart and decent - at least when she's sober. Soon Collins finds himself involved in a kidnapping scheme that goes drastically wrong almost before it even begins. The situation becomes increasingly dire as the kidnapped child's condition deteriorates without insulin. This is a story of how stress and violence can quickly spiral out of control, leaving no escape from the downward path. Jim Thompson's writing masterfully portrays the dark territory where honest people are easily drawn into wickedness, with no way out but down.
