James Hadley chase has written some of the most ineresting and most exciting stories that I have ever read.
The first work of Chase that I read was Tiger by the tail.Man,what a book....it has an element of intrigue and suspense that makes u read the whole book at one go...
The one I like most is Make the corpse walk.It is about a mental degenerate who stores his brother's corpse and thinks that he can bring him back to life using vodoo. A gang of unscrupulous men offer to help the degenerate achieve the required. The degenarate has a loyal chaffeur who is determined to save his money at any cost. The chaffeur takes the help of a girl whos been dumped by her boyfriend very recently. The story is hair raising and damn interesting.

Another one I like is Shock Treatment.Its a bout a guy who kills his mistress's husband by eletrocuting him.
All the books written by him are thrillers.Each one is different from the others.
Below is a list of some very good works of Chase
Tiger by the tail
The world in my pocket
Hit and Run
In a vain shadow
No orchids for miss blandish
Shock Treatment
Mission to venice
I would rather be poor
You are dead without money
Whats better than money
The vulture is a patient bird

I have copies of all the above mentioned and more works of Chase.Aneone interested in the works can contact me at jyotimankala@gmail.com
