MrT, "The Big Heat" was by William P. McGivern. An okay read. A little too much "the world is a junkyard but we all have to survive" kind of stuff, but it was okay. I actually liked the movie better. I couldn't get into McGivern's "Rogue Cop" either, where a crooked cop goes after the gangsters that killed his brother (that he just happened to work for). Sounds good on the back flap, but again there was too much moping around. It wasn't what I expected, either, and the way it turned out couldn't make up for that.
