I second Pinky and Pete Bondurant would like to
nominate:
Jack Carter, series Ted Lewis - but specially Get Carter
(Jack's Return Home in print) Detective Sergeant Department
of Unexplained Deaths - Derek Raymond's Factory series.
Bigelow (?) - Consumptive, club footed, small of stature hit
man from Thompson's Savage Night. This Gun For Sale - the
hair lipped fellah - this is gonna need some reseach I can
see - anyway I do nominate all of the above....
A note on rules. I think the usual way these are done is by
asking for everyone's top ten then awarding Ten points for
each first place nine for each second place etc... The idea
being that you get more of a consensus view and a personal
weighting with more consideration and thought given to
everyone's own choices (imagine how hard you would think to
whittle down your own choices to ten!!). So three people
picking Dick Contino as their fave would outvote twenty nine
Dudley Smith tenth places ---- does this make sense?? BTW, I
am very happy to volunteer to do the necessary if no-one else
wants to....... Cheers All Colin in England
