Krooner on Fri 26 October 2007 said... I realise he wasn't 80 when he wrote the majority of his work but he's still churning them out now without any drop in quality
@DKP4: Touch is great, avoid the movie though, I also left his Westerns until last. Bit of a mistake as alot of them are better than his modern day crime fiction
