About this product
Product Information
Dashiell Hammett meets Raymond Chandler in this ultra-gritty piece of contemporary Swedish noir, set in a decrepit, highly atmospheric 1930s Stockholm The writing's on the wall for Harry Kvist. Once a notorious boxer, he now spends his days drinking, and his nights chasing debts amongst the pimps, prostitutes and petty thieves of 1930s Stockholm. When women can't satisfy him, men can. But one biting winter's night he pays a threatening visit to a debtor named Zetterberg, and when the man is found dead shortly afterwards, all eyes are on Kvist. Determined to avoid yet another stint in prison, Kvist sets out to track down the only person who can clear his name. His hunt will lead him from the city's slums, gangster hideouts and gambling dens to its most opulent hotels and elite nightclubs. It will bring him face to face with bootleggers and whores, aristocrats and murderers. It will be the biggest fight of his life. Blending noir with gritty violence, Clinch is a visceral, compulsive thriller that packs a punch and leaves you reeling.

"Periodically I must close the book and remind myself that Clinch 's fantastically atmospheric setting depicts the real, heartbreaking suffering of the Great Depression, that the action scenes I'm eating up are actually grisly crimes perpetrated by cold-blooded criminals. That Holmn manages to sneak his story past my keen moral-outrage sensors is a testament to a fine writing talent. Harry Kvist is in many ways a monster -- Rocky Balboa he ain't. But with all that he has to go through to clear himself of the one awful crime he doesn't commit, he has at least one squeamish, peace-loving reader with him to the last page, cheering with every punch he lands." - Brett Marie, Bookanista This is noir writing as its best" -- The Bookbinder's Daughter "If Chandler and Hammett had truly walked on the wild side, it would read like CLINCH.

I am very happy with this purchasing experience. The seller provided a Johnny Mandel music book at a fair price. I was very happy with the condition of the music book. The packaging was excellent and ensured the book was well protected in transit. Delivery was very quick. I highly recommend this seller and I would purchase again from them.
