If you feel like a nostalgic trip into the life of a 60s private eye, full of careless violence and even more careless sex, the kind of roughly written pulp fiction you used to read as a kid, then this is for you.

When I was a kid short stories always had a surprise ending. That was the standard format. Then, through the touchy-feely 80s and 90s, surprise endings were replaced with deep and meaningful epiphanies. I guess writers were just trying to move with the times. Or maybe I was reading the wrong anthologies? Anyway, it's good to find an old style short story again, about a desperate character and a nasty betrayal, with a twist at the end.
