THE GLORIETA PASS
Read A Review:
Dan Wilder is in town to pull a gambling joint stick-up, first spotted by his buddy, a man named Milo. When Wilder and Milo get their wires crossed, Wilder decides to pick up a beauty at the bar, despite being warned the woman, Glorieta, is married.
When Wilder is accused of murdering a police officer in this surreal little town under the control of a rich old man with a hot young wife, he finds out how difficult finding someone who will listen to him can be. The real power behind the old money, a man named Hendricks, sets his men on Wilder.
Wilder escapes custody and kidnaps Glorieta in an effort to clear his name with the only straight cop in town.
If you like hard luck guys who buy a whole lot of trouble, then extricate themselves through a whole lot of spicy action, you'll enjoy Glorieta Pass.

It’s obvious…that author Chris O’Grady is going for the noir-style popularized by writers such as Raymond Chandler. While he occasionally hits the target in terms of character and overall mood…the characters…are… something you would see out of a 1940s movie.
