Late one night in Paris, travelling salesman Georges Gerfaut stops to help an injured motorist to hospital. Three days later, while Gerfaut is on holiday with his wife and daughters, he is attacked by two men. Quickly realising the duo?s murderous intent, but perplexed as to their motives, Gerfaut goes on the run, communicating with his family by telegram. Terrified, yet exhilarated by this release from his humdrum life, Gerfaut resolves to turn the tables and track down his pursuers. Jean-Patrick Manchette presents a clash between two opposing worlds: a conventional, middle-class existence cluttered by possessions and responsibilities, and a violent criminal underworld. In Georges Gerfaut we find an unlikely hero, an ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances and forced to fight for his life. Three to Kill is another riveting slice of ?70s noir by a masterful stylist, ironist, and social critic.

Seller's Description:
Fine. San Francisco: City Lights Books, 2002. First edition in English. First printing (trade paperback original). Paperback. Fine in wrappers, a PRINT ON DEMAND copy. A clean, unread copy. Octavo, 183 pages. "Three To Kill" (originally published in French as Le Petit Bleu de la Côte Ouest in 1976) is Jean-Patrick Manchette's breakthrough néo-polar noir, in which businessman Georges Gerfaut witnesses a murder and finds himself pursued by hired killers, forcing him to abandon his bourgeois life. Manchette (19421995), a French novelist, screenwriter, and translator, revolutionized the French crime genre in the 1970s with his terse, socially critical thrillers; "Three To Kill" is among his best-known works and the second of his eleven novels.
