THE CLIMATE OF HELL

Larry Stevens, a fisherman in Florida, is brainwashed into the identity of Kirk Reynolds, taken- by three men- to New York to live the life of a gilded bum, to renew his marriage with Laura, a lush, and to witness the murder of his presumed father- before his will is changed. Running away- to give himself up- he must finally face the revelation of his own responsibility in the situation to which his sick, truant conduct has led. Up from the pulps, loud and lewd and lurid.
