James Bond, Thomas Magnum, Jim Rockford and Mike Hammer sit in a bar in Phoenix, discussing whiskey, women, handguns and John D. MacDonald’s 1964 Travis McGee novel A Purple Place for Dying. Bond: Trav is my kind of gentleman, good with a gun, handy in a fight, and would make a good wing man. But too American though, too much of an individual.
A Purple Place for Dying is one of the more twisted Travis McGee novels. The third in the series, it’s one of the landlocked adventures in the early books. The novel is also one of the most surprising with the shocking murder taking place in the opening pages.
