Frank Chambers ist ein Rumtreiber. Und er ist abgebrannt. Eines Tages landet er vor einem Diner irgendwo im kalifornischen Nichts, betrieben vom Griechen Papadakis und seiner schönen jungen Frau Cora. Ihren Ehemann kann Cora nicht leiden, den Rumtreiber Frank dafür umso mehr. Ein Problem, das nur eine Lösung kennt, eine Lösung, die viele Probleme nach sich zieht. Solche, für die es keine Lösung gibt. Schwärzer als bei Cain war die Welt selten. In ihr regieren Skrupellosigkeit und Gier nach Sex und Geld. Jeder ist sich selbst am nächsten.

Many hybrid forms of the mystery-crime-thriller genre exists. All of them are narratives that keep one in suspense about what is about to happen.

Alexandre Dumas, Alfred Hitchcock, and Robert Ludlum are some of the masters of the genre.

Sincere religious reflection was a hallmark of soldiers in both armies in the Civil War, and it was generally an authentic religiosity rather than a battlefield conversion to spirituality. This is not surprising, as these characteristics had been common in the general population since the founding of the United States. Americans, despite their politics and prejudices, had always been and continued to be a strongly religious and highly moral people throughout the Antebellum Period (c. 1820-1860). Although there may have been a large number of battlefield conversions, in the average community, a person's attitude toward devotion was strongly shaped by the dominant religious beliefs of his neighbors or the local population as a whole.

The Modern Age is one of information overload. Bombarded, surrounded, and battered by facts, figures, opinions and seemingly whatever else comes out of anyone’s head from all directions at all hours of the day and night. It’s exhausting. In the pens of such luminaries as Henry James, E M Delafield, C E Montague, Charlotte Perkins Gilman and many others we connect with old fashioned media from publishing and advertising to telegrams and radio and everything in between in ways that are surprising, enlightening but always entertaining.
