  This is no run-of-the-mill hard-boiled thriller. The decor is by Dali the plot is a mixture of Breton and Burroughs, and the main character has six toes, sleeps in a grave and dreams of the pert and playful Reedy Buttons. A surrealist film-noir that blends forensic with erotic, and the seedy penny-dreadful with the lyric prose-poem.

  Alongside the names of James Hadley Chase and Erle Stanley Gardner we must now add that of John Hartley Williams - though Mystery in Spiderville is no run-of-the-mill hard-boiled thriller.
