Three of a Kind

This volume contains three novels by James M. Cain: Career in C Major, The Embezzler, and Double Indemnity. Like his great successes, The Postman Always Rings Twice and Serenade—like almost everything he has written—they deal with violent deeds and violent emotions. Passion and murder are their materials, and they are presented with the amazing skill that makes any Cain story an adventure in suspense. They are indeed three of a kind—and every one of them an ace.
