Classic noir novel centered on three characters. Frank Chambers a drifter. Cora Papadakis an unsatisfied wife. Nick “The Greek” Papadakis the owner of a restraint/gas station that hires Frank.
What follows is a fast-paced novel about love, murder, and betrayal. Zero fat on this book at all. By page eight Frank and Cora are in love and not soon after their nefarious plans start to take shape.
Yes, it may seem to have some tropes in it when you are reading it but you have to remember that this is one of the original noirs. Cain was an original. Superb dialogue that is realistic and carries weight.
Took me two days to read and once you crack it open you won’t want to put it down.
