A Fun Read,
By
This review is from: The Passionate (Paperback)
The Passionate is yet another work of pulp fiction from the prolific author Carter Brown. In this one, Lt. Al Wheeler investigates the mysterious disappearance of a cadaver from the county morgue and soon finds himself caught up in a web of lies, murder, and blackmail. Along the way, Wheeler discovers a conspiracy involving two sultry twin sisters, a washed-up tennis pro, an arrogant game hunter, and a mysterious criminal known as Messenger John. Perhaps not surprisingly, the plot really doesn't make much sense if you give it too much thought but since when do you read a Carter Brown novel for the plot? This book has all of the hard-boiled dialogue, shamelessly inappropriate humor, and tough prose that one should expect from Carter Brown, all leading up to a surprisingly dark and powerful ending. The Passionate may not be what is popularly considered to be a work of great literature but it is a fun and entertaining read.
