Riassunto

Certain that a 1940s hard-boiled detective film--rented frequently by the victim before his death--holds the key to the identity of his murderer, Rune the spunky clerk in a video store, investigates the crime, in a revised edition of Deaver's classic, Edgar Award-nominated debut novel. Reprint.
