Book Synopsis



TEARS ARE FOR ANGELS

When Jean finds Harry London, there isn't much left of the man. He lives alone in a shack, spends all his time drunk on moonshine. He's forgotten about shaving, washing. All he does is shoot at empty cans of beans...and pretends he's shooting Dick Stewart...

Jean is there to find out what happened to her friend, Lucy. The last letter she received from her, she was happily married to Harry, living on his farm, settling into her new life. Now she's dead, a suicide. What happened to Lucy? And what has turned her loving husband into this brooding wreck of a man, whose sole reason for living is to take revenge against a man who once did him wrong...?



Review Quotes




"It's fine, muscular stuff that's both hardboiled and noirish, embodies the best of the 1950s Gold Medal paperback original style, and is therefore a book that comes highly recommended."--Mr. Hardboiled

"This a great book written by an author with clear literary aspirations and an ability to craft a plot utilizing prose far exceeding most of the era's noir stories... a lost classic."--Paperback Warrior

"This is a great one that needs to be rediscovered and appreciated by fans of crime/noir fiction."--GoodReads
