About “This Man Is Dangerous”
Mr. Cheyney brings American mobsters, along with their witty and lightning-fast repartee, to an English setting, in a story that surpasses the thrilling pace and entertainment value of films like The Thin Man and The Big Sleep. It follows organised gangsters running a kidnapping racket who plot in minute detail to snatch the daughter of an American millionaire while she is in England, a plan that must also prevent interference from the English police and rival gangs.
