About this title

Review:

Great villains can make a mystery, and David Martin's latest has not one but two wonderful heavies--a grinning lunatic named Donald Growler, guilty of everything but the murder that got him sent to prison, and McCleany, the cold-blooded cop who framed him. Squeezed between these two evils are Paul, the gentle, religious young man who helped Growler get paroled, Paul's wife, and her former lover--a tough ex-cop named Teddy Camel who can look at bad guys and make them confess. Camel will need all his smarts to get over the hump of a vengeful Growler and an even more vicious McCleany. Martin's previous Camel caravan, Lie to Me, is available in paperback.
