The Right Madness

"Vintage Crumley: beautifully written... outrageous... unputdownable." -The Washington Post Book World

James Crumley is one of the most revered practitioners of post-Chandler crime fiction, praised by the likes of Dennis Lehane and Michael Connelly as a major influence. C. W. Sughrue is Crumley's most indelible creation. Now Sughrue is back, in a searing thrill ride of a novel that has the seen-it-all Montana private eye trying to find out which of a small-town shrink's bizarre patients has made off with some highly confidential files. Fast-paced, brutal, melancholy, and ruefully funny, The Right Madness is Crumley at his uncompromising best.

"Do yourself a favor and read it tonight. Nothing you could do with your clothes on will be as pleasurable." —Otto Penzler, The New York Sun

"Vintage Crumley: beautifully written... outrageous... unputdownable." —The Washington Post Book World
