#WhatWereReading : "the Montgomery's money was so old, it has Moses's teeth marks on it."

Joe loved Denise Mina's new take on Chandler's classic gumshoe noir, Philip Marlowe. Now out in paperback from
Vintage Books

Good month for Denise Mina readers! Following hot on her new Philip Marlowe novel, The Second Murder (Pub Harvil Secker, and much recommended by our own Joe), now Three Fires arrives from Polygon Books. Doug is very excited!

In a coincidence, Three Fires features the same Italian historical character as D.V. Bishop's recent Florence based historical Whoddunit, Ritual of Fire (which we also highly recommend)

"The Montgomery's money was so old there was a rumour that some of it still had Moses' teeth marks on it"

Joe rejoices in the return of the iconic Philip Marlowe in The Second Murderer by the excellent Denise Mina, out today from HArvill Secker

"She... dressed like a union foreman waking up on his couch on a slow Sunday in Pasadena"

Denise Mina is clearly having fun channeling Chandler for her upcoming Philip Marlowe novel, The Second Murderer (coming from @harvillsecker mid-July)
