really difficult to comment on or rate any JHC book really ! But what i observed is that the books published tillare greatest ! Those aftertill end are comparatively less interesting than earlier.
This was a good read, It became transparent after the first few chapter, no real plot twists, Not one of his better works ΒΙΠΕΡ Νο,
Οι ένοχοι φοβούνται πάντα. Bogart, as Sam Spade, famously explained: " When a man's partner is killed, he's supposed to do something about it, It doesn't make any difference what you thought of him, He was your partner and you're supposed to do something about it, And it happens we're in the detective business, Well, when one of your organization gets killed, it'sit's bad business to let the killer get away with it, bad all around, bad for every detective everywhere.
"

Chase, in hisnovel, " The Guilty Are Afraid," takes up that theme, Chase sets his story though not in foggy San Francisco, but in St, Raphael City, a madeup locale that seems to be a version of San Diego, corrupt, filled with wealthy men, secret clubs, and bikiniclad heiresses, Lew Brandon didn't think much of his partner, Jack Sheppey, but he wasn't going to let his corpse lie without the truth being ferreted out.


Chase provides us a wellwritten, absorbing story that is filled with lots of standard cliches, but is written so smoothly you allow for that even if you figure it out before our gumshoe does.
Chase really gives an authentic feel to his story, You feel Brandon's frustration as he realizes there's little to no clue as to why his partner was in this city, what he was working on, or for who.
You feel Brandon's annoyance with the millionaire's secretaries and bodyguards as Brandon asks his questions, There are great fight scenes as Brandon takes on five to one odds against wrecking crews, And, of course, there's Margot who is as bewitching as she is beautiful, Most of what Brandon does here is follow some hunches, but he's running out of time as a corrupt police captain threatens to shut down this unofficial investigation.
Good story. Thoroughly enjoyed. The Guilty Are Afraid is athriller novel by James Hadley Chase, The novel is set against the foundation of a rich hoodlum ridden city on the Pacific Coast where Lew Brandon, the hero, searches for the executioner who discarded his accomplice Jack Sheppey Lew Brandon, a smart private detective, solves the mystery of the murder of his colleague, in a city riven by crime, drug dealing and corruption at high places.
The killer turns out to be one whom one least suspects, That kind of twist in the tale is the hallmark of James Hadley Chase, I give three since there are a few moments when the story drags, Otherwise a good entertainer. it is a very smart book, always leaving one reading with an eager to read even more, it is in a form of a very trendy movie, it so excellent. How many James Hadley Chase crime thrillers have I read that use an exclusive club as a key plot device Exclusive being either for the ultra wealthy or the elite criminal.
At least seven or eight times in the books I've read so far, And how many of his novels make use of a beach cabin or oceanside bungalow Ten or twelve at last count He does it again, here.
And it all plays into the mystery of the case just as if you're seeing it for the first time, Chase's American setting is mythic and abstract, It's a place of atmosphere and impressions, It rarely gets tiring in his work, Even, here, where you pretty much have sized up the killer and the mystery perhaps a quarter of the way through, It doesn't matter. Because it is how Chase puts it all together at the end that is so fascinating, That, and a pace to this novel that just builds and builds, A really awful privateeye novel, completely predictable and full of noir clichés, Well, it was written in thes, and we've come a long way since then, but still, . . Typical police novel with drugs affairs, good looking women and some shooting and fights,
Easy to read and to forget after,
Good to fill some available time, Следромана, повечето от които филмирани, Джеймс Хадли Чейс няма нужда да бъде обясняван. Рецептата му не изглежда сложна: един град на парите и порока, продажна полиция, корумпирана администрация, няколко трупа в аванс, дветри скучаещи красавици и се появява едно частно ченге, което обича истината повече от кожата си. Оттам нататък всичко е в ръцете на един от найголемите майстори на трилъра.
А той знае как да забърка тази дяволски интересна каша. the guilty run when no one is chasing I Once left this book halfread and after long time read it again to finish it, It Didn't disappoint me.
The remarkable feature of Chase is , He won't Disappoint you, This book is no different, it's an absolute Page Turner,
The story about a private detective finding the killer of his fellow partner who was dead when the former visits this beach city and how he does that is the plot.
Until the last chapter , the Author doesn't give you a single iota of space to guess the killer, so only at the end you can take a peak.

The only shortcome i came across was the little little snippets could be explained more but the author let us make our own assumptions, maybe that's his speciality
Totally, a fine read In this glorious novel, my favorite author writes again about a private detective.
Mister Chase created several more such detective protagonists, and all the stories about them are very different and incredibly interesting, Yes, write D. H. Chase even a thousand books, I would swallow them all quickly and with great pleasure,
