First published in 1934 and banned in Boston for its explosive mixture of violence and eroticism, this novel established James M. Cain as a major novelist with an unsparing vision of America's bleak underside. It is a steamy tale of a drifter offered a job at a roadside diner by the owner, an easy-going older man. When the drifter and the owner's voluptuous wife fall in love, they plot to kill her husband and run away together.
