Description
A jazz musician wakes up from a drug-fueled blackout to find a beautiful woman dead beside him-nude and shot with his own gun. In So Nude, So Dead, master of crime fiction Ed McBain (writing under the pseudonym Richard Marsten) delivers a lean, suspenseful noir full of desperation, paranoia, and the dark seduction of addiction. Framed for murder and hunted by the police, Ray Stone must unravel the truth before his past-and his habit-destroy him completely. Originally published in the 1950s, this hardboiled pulp classic captures the gritty atmosphere of post-war urban America, where jazz clubs, night streets, and dope dens provide the backdrop for a chilling mystery. Fast-paced and tightly plotted, So Nude, So Dead is vintage McBain: sharp, unsentimental, and unforgettable.
