Humphrey Bogart and down-and-out Hollywood private-eye Terry Scott team up to thwart a scheme to blackmail Bogie for murder and find themselves tangling with gangsters and trying not to trip over corpses. Their investigation takes them to glamorous restaurants like The Brown Derby where the stars go to be seen, and to other, darker, more dangerous places where names are changed and faces are hidden from public view. As Bogie and Terry dig deeper, they uncover too many secrets that someone doesn't want known, and they find themselves the targets of a killer. Getting through alive will take all the smarts, toughness and grit of a character in a Humphrey Bogart movie! No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Oh my, where to start? I simply have to say that I loved this book. If you're a Bogart fan like I am, this book is a fantastic adventure with one of your buddies along side of you. It's like eating a meal at the old hangout and swapping private jokes.
I really enjoyed how Crider wrote Bogart as Bogart - the toupee, the ruby ring, the portrait of Bacall above the fireplace; the little touches that made Bogie feel human and not like Marlowe or Spade. Even though Crider made up the dialogue, it's what you know Bogart would say if he were in the situation. Even the cadence of the speech seems authentic.
I had such a good time reading this one. It's supposed to be the first in a new series and I certainly hope that is the case! ( )
