Description
War has left its mark on Clinton Brown, leaving him with a permanent disfigurement that has changed him forever. Now a rewrite man, he struggles to find purpose in life, isolated from friends and even his estranged wife, Ellen. The only comfort he finds is in the bottle, but Ellen's return to Pacific City has brought a new sense of urgency to his life. Ellen's determination to get Brown back has a price, one that Brown is willing to pay to keep hidden. As the bodies start to pile up around him, it becomes clear that Brown will stop at nothing to keep his secret buried. This is a deeply suspenseful and tragic portrait of one man's journey into the dark side of the post-war era. Jim Thompson's writing is at its most psychologically astute in this novel, a gripping and intense thriller that explores the complexities of the human psyche.
