*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: We’re continuing to introduce the new layout for our books categories, with an image for each book. This week, we return to our Crime, Spies and Sleaze category for five more thrillers. Two from the American publisher, Graphic Mystery 1956, This Kill Is Mine by Dean Evans and The Corpse Next Door by John Farris, both cop/gangster/chick tough thrillers with attractive and stylish cover art by the British artist Oliver Brabbins. Then two by the celebrated American novelist William Faulkner, Sanctuary and Wild Palms, both cited as great entry points for his body of work. Finally, a tense crime drama set in France, The Killers by William H Fear, a rare UK 1st PB.
