Cassidy's Girl
David Goodis
They say that a man
needs a woman to go to hell with. Cassidy had two. One was Mildred, the
wife who kept him chained with ties of fear and jealousy and paralyzing
sexual need. The other was Doris, a frail angel with a 100-proof halo
and a bottle instead of a harp. With those two, Cassidy found that the
ride to hell could be twice as fast.
Cassidy's Girl has all the
traits that made its author a virtuoso of the hard-boiled: a fiercely
compelling ploy; characters who self-destruct in spectacularly
unpredictable ways; and an insider's knowledge of all the routes to the
bottom.
