Ernest Ralph Gorse's heartlessness and lack of scruple are matched only
by the inventiveness and panache with which he swindles his victims.
With great deftness and precision Hamilton exposes how his dupes' own
naivete, snobbery or greed make them perfect targets. These three novels
are shot through with the brooding menace and sense of bleak
inevitability so characteristic of the author.
There is also
vivid satire and caustic humour. Gorse is thought to be based on the
real-life murderer Neville Heath, hanged in 1946.
