The novel follows a tense story of greed, betrayal, and deception centered around a seemingly clever plan to outsmart wealthy and powerful figures.

He was one of the most popular crime and thriller writers of the 20th century, known for his hard-boiled American-style crime stories, even though he was British. His novels often featured criminals, femme fatales, and gritty urban settings, inspired by American pulp fiction. Chase wrote more than 90 novels, including well-known titles like \u003cem data-start=\"1243\" data-end=\"1273\"\u003eNo Orchids for Miss Blandish\u003c\/em\u003e, and his works remain popular worldwide for their suspenseful storytelling and dark themes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"z-0 flex min-h-[46px] justify-start\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mt-3 w-full empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-center\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" data-edge=\"true\" class=\"pointer-events-none h-px w-px absolute bottom-0\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-id=\"gp48q5-624670-6sjbs2-llx30i\" data-cel-widget=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"edpIngress\" data-csa-c-id=\"fqjlev-4wn8j7-4yrhzu-1yg2dq\" data-cel-widget=\"edpIngress_feature_div\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"richProductInformation\" data-csa-c-id=\"y3ia7b-a5scs2-6639g2-v2q9mu\" data-cel-widget=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"rich_product_information\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"yhz9je-akpdp0-pl515a-pdxk8s\" data-cel-widget=\"rich_product_information\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Best of used books","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":43881507488001,"sku":"2QU1T0CN5-Used","price":99.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/4299\/0495\/files\/hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh_2fda8cde-ea9a-4c0c-8233-b8bbe1bfc9a7.jpg?v=1772076982","url":"https:\/\/bestofusedbooks.com\/products\/hit-them-where-it-hurts-1","provider":"Best Of Used Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
