R: RARA-AVIS: Some pre-Lew Archer?

From: Luca Conti ( luca.conti8@tin.it)
Date: 16 Nov 2002

There are four pre-1953 Lew Archer novels: The Moving Target (1949), The Drowning Pool (1950), The Way Some People Die (1951), The Ivory Grin
(1952).

Anyway, Meet Me at the Morgue is quite good.

Since when is Ross Macdonald off topic? :-)

Best, Luca
