Three of a Kind: Career in C Major; Double Indemnity; The Embezzler

xv, 327 pp. "This volume contains three novels by James M. Cain: Career in C Major, Double Indemnity, and The Embezzler. Like his great successes, The Postman Always Rings Twice and Serenade—like almost everything he has written—they deal with violent deeds and violent emotions. Passion and murder are their materials, and they are presented with the amazing skill that makes any Cain story an adventure in suspense. They are indeed three of a kind—and every one of them an ace."
