Contrary to what you may have heard, Gil Brewer had his mojo working well beyond the 1950s. Memory of Passion tells of a husband wife who still have “active glands,” though not for each other. Things get complicated when the flame of the husband’s teenaged years reappears in his life—having not aged a day in more than 20 years. Things get more complicated still when we learn that this ageless flame is being stalked by a serial killer. Another excellent Brewer ripe for rediscovery. Grade: A-
Whoa, what the hell? Thank you, I've never even heard of this one and it's apparently a good one.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
ReplyDeleteSTARK HOUSE needs to reprint this book. Sounds intriguing.
ReplyDeleteBrewer and Garfield day!
ReplyDeleteI just commented today over on James Reasoner's blog that MEMORY OF PASSION is the only Brewer I've haven't yet read (as affordable copies are few and far between). Someday I hope to remedy that.

In fact, if you're looking at unloading that copy you read for review... ;-)
