Miami Blues Zusammenfassung

Miami Blues Charles Willeford

'No one writes a better crime novel than Charles Willeford' Elmore Leonard Ex-con Freddy 'Junior' Frenger lands in Miami with three stolen wallets and plans for a new life of crime, and leaves the airport with a snatched suitcase and the corpse of a Hare Krishna behind him. Homicide detective Hoke Moseley is soon on his case, chasing the utterly immoral Junior and his hooker girlfriend through the Cuban ghettoes, luxury hotels and seedy suburban sprawl of Miami in a game of hide and seek that will leave Hoke beaten, robbed - but determined to get his man. A brutal, thrilling ride, Miami Blues is a classic of Florida crime fiction, revealing the sordid side of the Sunshine State. 'Pure pleasure... Mr. Willeford never puts a foot wrong' The New Yorker This is the first in the Hoke Mosely series; other titles in Penguin Modern Classics include New Hope for the Dead, Sideswipe and The Way We Die Now, while fans of the books include Quentin Tarantino, Elmore Leonard and James Lee Burke.

Miami Blues Bewertungen

Extraordinarily winning ... Pure pleasure ... Mr. Willeford never puts a foot wrong * The New Yorker *
A Graham Greene-like entertainment, but tougher and funnier, softened by neither simile nor sentiment. This is probably as close to the real now Miami as any thriller is likely to come -- Donald Justice
Hoke Moseley is a magnificently battered hero. Willeford brings him to us lean and hard and brand-new -- Donald E. Westlake
Pure pleasure... Mr. Willeford never puts a foot wrong * The New Yorker *
