A review by chalicotherex
Savage Night by Jim Thompson

5.0

A hitter for the mob goes undercover as a student in a small college town, I guess because he's short. But he quickly finds out that there ain't no killing your way out of trouble in a Jim Thompson novel.

Also I just realized I'm an idiot and that his

mental breakdown begins a lot earlier than I realized. The baby leg should have been a clue, because there's no way that could happen.

I now need to reread this novel.
