Hot Night in the City by Trevanian

Hot Night in the Cityis a masterwork from Trevanian, whose unique ability to create a new stylistic voice for each genre he visits has produced the international best sellers:The Main, The Summer of Katya,andShibumi, and his hundreds of thousands of ardent fans. Hot Night in the Cityoffers a feast for every taste: action, romance, laughter, love, wit, compassion...all seasoned by a wryly oblique view of the human condition. The reader meets a parade of unforgettable characters in compelling situations: a bewitching young madman charms his trusting victim, two strong Basque women battle over an apple tree, a crusty old carnival huckster instructs his adolescent apprentice, an embittered young soldier rescues the dignity of a faded whore, a famous writer learns an unpalatable truth about himself, and more. The feast ofHot Night in the Cityis both delicious and nourishing, both spicy and satisfying.
