First published in 1963, One Bright Summer Morning is essentially a tough crime novel about kidnapping and murder. The set-up is pretty straight forward. Successful dramatist Victor Dermott rents an isolated ranch-house in the Nevada Desert for himself, and his wife and young baby, as an escape so that he can finish a play that he is working on. All is going fine, until he wakes one morning to find their servant gone, his dog and guns missing and the telephone line cut. The story then flashes back three months to a retired gangster, Big Jim Kramer, who suddenly discovers that he has been ripped off by his now dead accountant and is flat broke. In desperation he cooks up an elaborate kidnapping scheme involving the daughter of billionaire, a motley collection of cheap crooks and the unlucky Victor Dermott. It is a well thought out scheme, but in typical 1960s crime fiction fashion things start going wrong from the beginning, and bloodshed and betrayal follows.
