Аннотация

James M. Cain, acclaimed as one of the modern masters of mystery, has once again woven a forceful tale that challenges people’s basic morality with temptations they are powerless to resist.　
Davey Howell is content in his rural Ohio solitude; the static broadcasts of the country radio stations are his only steady contact with the “outside” world. But then a hijacker plummets into his life, along with $100,000 cash ransom and a beautiful stewardess as hostage. Suddenly, Davey’s sense of “the good life” faces its toughest challenge — with the hijacker dead, who would know if the money were lost or stolen?
RAINBOW’S END bears all the trademarks that have made James Cain one of our most influential writers. The money: $100,000 is more than Davey dreamed of making in his entire lifetime. The woman: the worldly stewardess is like none Davey has ever known. The momentum: Cain is the master, whirling hours into instants and back again. And finally, the man alone: Cain isolates Davey, leaving him to make his own decisions within this hoard of temptation. This is the dramatic force of James M. Cain, named by Camus as “the greatest American writer.”
