Book Group: Thanksgiving Noir: The Grifters by Jim Thompson

It was fun last year reading Postman Always Rings Twice before Thanksgiving (maybe it was Christmas, whatever). This year let's read Jim Thompson, The Grifters. It should only take a week to read, and for those of you around the Tuesday before Thanksgiving we'll meet to talk about it.

Here's the synopsis of the book: "Roy DIllon seems too handsome and well-mannered to be a professional con man. Lilly Dillon looks too young--and loves Roy a little too intensely--to be taken for his mother. Moira Langtry is getting too old to keep on living off the kindness of male strangers. And Carol Roberg seems too innocent to be acquainted with suffering."
