The Death Cycle - Charles Runyon

In the great tradition of the Pulp Fiction genre, The Death Cycle originally published in 1963 tells the story of two men and two women, on the run from the law after a botched robbery. Gritty and hard-boiled like the best of this genre The Death Cycle is a great read!

From the back cover

BRETT was the kind of a guy who always raced - away from danger, headlong into disaster.

JEANNE was Brett's wife, and she learned how to loathe him first and then how to stop caring.

DORIS was the party girl who spilled over any man who smiled.

CARL led them on their runaway ride while a crime and a bundle of money held them together - until their passions lost all control and their desire to escape the law turned into a stronger desire to switch partners and escape each other.
