Their Kind Of Town (A Chicago Mystery)

Description: Their Kind of Town follows Richard Whittingham's previous bestselling novel State Street, called by the Chicago Tribune's reviewer "a top-flight detective novel as raw as life on the city's wintry streets . . . no novel I can recall . . . captures as well the essence of Chicago's dark side." Their Kind of Town is a multi-dimensioned work by a talented new novelist whose vision extends deep into Chicago's mean streets, its cops, its Outfit and especially a cast of characters worth knowing and remembering. Their Kind of Town features Joe Morrison, the streetwise - yet surprisingly vulnerable - ex-homicide cop who also figured prominently in State Street - of whom Mystery News said: "Like Chandler's Philip Marlowe, Hammett's Sam Spade, McBain's Steve Carella, there's a knowing guide for the territory - Joe Morrison."
