Read in May, 2011

I found this a fun introduction to the roman noir genre. It's a simple depiction of a female grifter and serial killer, elegantly and cleverly done. The superb translation alone deserves a star; Middleton not only translates, but gives context to sly French references probably unknown to the average English reader.
