Litchfield Reviews Flight to Darkness and 77 Rue Paradis by Gil Brewer

LEP.CO.UK - Flight to Darkness and 77 Rue Paradis by Gil Brewer

Two more welcome suspense novels from Gil Brewer:

“In two turbulent, mesmerizing tales from the 1950s, a Korean War veteran gets involved with a troublesome beauty and finds himself caught up in immense family strife and murder, and a disgraced former aircraft manufacturer is blackmailed into treason.

Flight to Darkness and 77 Rue Paradis are two early career novels by the late American author Gil Brewer, a prolific writer of compelling crime stories. Author of 50 novels and more than 100 short stories, Brewer was among the most popular noir writers of the 1950s.

Written in just three days, Flight to Darkness was published in 1952, one year after his hugely successful bestselling third novel, 13 French Street, which sold more than 1.3 million copies.”

My review of these two classic tales by novelist Gil Brewer is featured today in the Lancashire Post and syndicated to 25 newspapers in the UK. The full review can be found at the web link below and elsewhere.
