DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. OTTIME CONDIZIONI, LIEVE INGIALLIMENTO, LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. Raccolta eterogenea di otto racconti. Il detective danzante. Una variazione sul tema: la Bella, il Buono, il Cattivo. Due amici in una camera immobiliata. La pelliccia. Galoppino. Tre gialli vicini allo stile classico in cui i detective sono dilettanti oppure anonimi poliziotti.L a luce alla finestra. Muta come una tomba. Interessanti più che per la storia, per l'abilità con cui viene descritta la psiche dei protagonisti e come li guida - verrebbe da dire: volenti o nolenti - nelle loro azioni. In particolare il primo, che si addentra nei meandri di una mente logorata dalla guerra - un modo alternativo per fare polemica antimilitarista. Dilemma. E' il detective a vivere il dilemma del titolo: non deve risolvere un caso di omicidio ma, addirittura, cercare di discernere tra assassino e vittima. L'unghia. Strizza l'occhio all'horror e al pulp - il racconto meno consigliato agli stomaci deboli - letteralmente. Ma il mondo intorno a loro, che lottava caparbiamente per uscire dal baratro in cui era sprofondato ai tempo della Depressione, aveva trovato dei nuovi standard di vita, più semplici e frugali. Sulle acque ancora agitate del tempo, era stato appena riavvistato un vascello di nome Sicurezza. Ma i vecchi agi, le spensieratezze degli sprechi, non tornarono mai più.
