Hi to All! Pay attention to creative work of a British writer
- James Hadley Chase (1906-85). He is one of the best
European masters of hard-boiled fiction. This writer
frequently compare to Charles Williams and James M. Cain (in
some French articles). He created many images of the fatal
woman in his novels. Among some series characters there is 3
books about too much hot woman (constantly "looking for
problems") named Helga Rolfe. It's a series not the best in
JHChase's works, but nevertheless... Interesting female
images of the main heroines are
(for example) in novels: " The Flesh of the Orchid " - 1948
(gloomy continuation of the Ms. Blandish's story) and " Miss
Shumway Waves a Wand " - 1944 (a fantasy-humorous detective,
completely unusual to this writer). Vladimir
