    When I saw "Numismatic fiction" I was expecting you to suggest the pop reports or the grey sheet. image

    Aw, man! I love Raymond Chandler. I took a great course in hard-boiled detective fiction back in college and was introduced to him there. I don't think I've read that one yet! I keep meaning to buy an omnibus or other set of his works. Count me in!

    Thanks!

    Longacre typically does not read fiction books, but given the numismatic theme, I will throw my hat in the ring. If I win, I will certainly make an exception to my no-fiction rule and read it.
