This review is from: Ace Up My Sleeve (Hardcover)

James Hadley Chase in this book shows his tremendous ability to keep you in suspense till the end.You cannot put away the book till you have finished reading it. The story is so immaculately detailed that you can feel the tension, the fear - it stirs your emotion and the ending is a something that you hoped for and it makes you feel good. Dont throw an opportunity to read this one...........

2.0 out of 5 stars Mix Feelings, December 11, 2003

By 

Michael Churchill Dibulo (l) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ace Up My Sleeve (Paperback)

Chase again unleashed another fast-moving story of blackmail coupled with intrigue feelings and extortion with an illuminating and hard-boiled climax. It's the case of three different personalities who combined a force together and all out for the same thing and prepared to face the urge with a zeal of getting their objective at all cost, Assuming when a wealthy middle-aged woman, an international lawyer and a young American, comes together all aiming for the same purpose, the stakes are absolutely the principle thing. The scene is brutal, the weapons are metal and the instructions are leathery.

briefly it a story about Judge Henry Cecil Leon who was born in Norwood Green Rectory near London in 1902. he later told wrote books for Alibi for a Judge.
