Unusual plots, tough dialogue starring anti-heroes both brutal and complex, and women living outside the lie of chivalry: “She wasn’t wearing much beneath her skirt. In an instant it was over. Fiercely and abruptly.”
HIGH PRIEST OF CALIFORNIA – The hairiest, ballsiest hard-boiled ever penned. One continuous orgy of prolonged foreplay! WILD WIVES: sex, schizophrenia and sadism blend into a recipe for sudden doom!” –Dennis McMillan
Both novels evoke San Francisco in the Fifties, with rich details of place and lushly etched characters of every stripe. Willeford’s genius has never been more more pugnacious than in these two early works.
