The first book in the hard-boiled, brutal Vince Slader PI series Vince Slader is an ex-cop-turned-PI who is hired by a casino to hunt down a gambler with a $28, 000 tab in return for a percentage of the debt. It seems like a straight-forward job until Slader winds up framed for murder. As if that isn't bad enough, he becomes a target of hard-charging politicians and the West Coast mafia."An enjoyable 1950s crime-fiction novel that retains most of the flavor of the genre's mid-century pioneers. If you are a fan of authors like Frank Kane and Mickey Spillane, The Long Night is sure to please. Demaris saturates the prose with gunplay, fast cars and sexy women. The criminals are edgy, but the hero is a valid, uncompromising tough guy who serves as the perfect crime combatant." The Paperback Warrior
