"A bit melodramatic and preachy, somewhat dated in its attitudes toward ladies, a few philosophical asides (pre-Travis McGee stuff). but JDM could spin a first-rate story. Not as noirish as I originally thought it'd be. The Florida setting is jaded and commercialized even in 1960, the publication date. Rich characters, especially the minor ones."
