Graham Greene, 1938

Date read 5/16/24


Allegedly this is a thriller but I was not thrilled. Too spoiled by modern thrillers with graphic death and stuff I guess. But it was an enjoyable read with an unlikely and likeable "detective" as the main character. I really dug it.


Length: 299 pages in hardback

Classic: early thriller, yes
