Review
Another of the street gang stories from this period. This one is a bit different, more like a mystery or a Hitchcock thriller. I like that, but I feel some of the street language was funny. Maybe it was accurate for the time, but some phrases came off kind of silly today. Really, thoguh, this was a good story.
