Three to Kill by Jean-Patrick Manchette

4.0

A French noir gem. Picked up when Borders UK was going out of business (5 books for 1 pound, can't go wrong). Excellent translation, and delightful middle-manager anti-hero, bit of a schlub, who finds himself on the wrong side of two hitmen for no good reason at all.

Nihilistic in a really fun way. Finished in two brief readings. I'll definitely seek out more Manchette. (Maybe even in original.)
