Hit And Run

Just what I wrote in the title, which is a waste of time to begin. In this day and age it's just not a believable story.

Of all the machine gun action thrillers of James Hadley Chase I have read (and I have read quite a few), this one is simply the best story so far, JHC raises the bar of Thriller genre to such an extent that no writer has been able to match it till now. I often wonder why doesn't Hollywood make movies out of JHC's novels, other than Eve (totally lacking that quintessential JHC touch) and few other novels not many movies have been made out of his works. His novels are a simple gold mine to script writers. To me JHC will always remain the master of the thriller genre, period !!!

James Hadley Chase novels are a must read for readers who like a straight but thrilling adventure story. 10 out of 10. Have now acquired a new copy of his first novel "No Orchids for Miss Blandish" 1939. Amazon should restock these old books as he is a different type of writer and still quite poular.

Good suspense
