Alright, its better to try than not to try at all! I have three novels in mind that answer your questions. Here we go; 1) The joker in the pack 2) An ace up my sleeve 3) I hold the four aces |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 12:27pm On Jan 13, 2006 |
well are you submitting three answers? i asked for only one...........and where is Bagoma for God's sake? and what about the other parts to the question? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 12:54pm On Jan 13, 2006 |
nicetohave: Here we go: 1) The first person in the dialogue is Mr. Herman Rolfe 2)The second person is Helga Rolfe 3)Chase title: An ace up my sleeve BINGO! |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 4:03pm On Jan 13, 2006 |
Good job Cushman you got 1 and 2 correctly 3 is Joker in the Pack, that is the novel Herman Rolfe died...he was alive in an ace up my sleeve and never featured in i hold the four aces, Bingo Bagoma, please say something, your silence is killing me |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by bagoma(f): 7:14pm On Jan 13, 2006 |

Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Jalal(m): 7:50pm On Jan 13, 2006 |
@Nice2have Na wa o It seems u live Chase 24/7 as u remember the titles and all what happened as 4 me I read once and after 1 or 2 wks i forget the whole story, thats what makes it so interesting i can read the same book many times over and still enjoy it as if it was d first time!!!!!!!! |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by bagoma(f): 8:02pm On Jan 13, 2006 |
that's interesting jalal, talk about retentive memory! |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Soulful(m): 2:19am On Jan 14, 2006 |
No conversation about James Hadley Chase is complete without reference to "No Orchids for Miss Blandish" In my humble opinion the best of all his works....... Anyone agree?? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 1:28pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
Its a bomb, may not be the best but its the very first novel he wrote, an excellent masterpiece................boy its going to be difficult to say which novel is the best, have you read the dolls bad news? (dave fenner, the same guy who busted the grissom gang) what about Flesh of the orchids? (a masterpiece in its own right) Long live James Hadley Chase (R.I.P) |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Farriel(m): 5:28pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
Hmm, how about Tiger By The Tail? Or, Well Now My Pretty, or This Way For A Shroud, or Knock Knock, Who's There? Not to mention Want To Stay Alive. Not to mention my all time favourite, Tell It To The Birds. It's really difficult picking the best out of all, or rather, flatly impossible. There are so many brilliant thrillers of his, that only after you've submitted your reply, have long logged out of Nairaland, have long shutdown your system, do the titles of yet many more start coming to you. By the way, who's got any ebooks of his? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 5:32pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
I agree with you farriel, Chase is the master of all thriller writers, take it or leave it. do we have James hadley chase in ebooks? tell me where i can get them if there are any, it will be a pleasure to post some of them on this forum if i can get them. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Farriel(m): 5:40pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
There should be. Like most other popular authors whose books are being digitized. Sadly Nicetohave, I do not know anywhere you could get them (for free ). I've been searching myself, but no luck so far. Once I find, I'd inform you. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 5:42pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
good, id like to have them even if i have to buy.....sadly though it seems chase is being quickly forgotten and i dont know why but i'll check if there is any fan club that will have more info on this. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Z4M4eva(f): 6:12pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
Yeah...I don't think he's as popular as he used to be anymore although I haven't read any of his books but I've heard about him |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 6:37pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
@nicetohave, where's my prize? I got 1 and 2 correctly |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 7:01pm On Jan 14, 2006 |
Patience, patience..........if everybody gets the prize for answering half the question then the organisers will close down but in any case since you are the closest to it id give it to you. so two down (Bagoma is getting a complimentary copy and youre getting one for your half effort) three more to go: you'll sure get your copies, take my word for it. Watch out for subsequent quiz. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by bagoma(f): 5:30pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
your word? hmmmn! i fear ooo |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 5:36pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
@bagoma, have no fear. It'll work. You'll see |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by bagoma(f): 6:36pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
hen! cushman you want to trust that man? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 6:43pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
Ha! relax, we are trusting him together, aren't we? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by kaylala(m): 6:51pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
I never for once read one of his novels.But my immediate elder brother was an addict,he nevver stops reading Hadley chase to the extent that he was known in virtually all book stores and magazine stands in Lagso. Anyways i thank God 4 him now. I was in luv with Adventures of Sherlock Holmes |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 6:59pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
kaylala: Sherlock Holmes? That funny detective right? Though interesting too |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by kaylala(m): 7:04pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
he his not really funny but intelligent,smart and pays attentions to deatils and everything around him.A good guy 2 |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 7:34pm On Jan 15, 2006 |
bagoma: bagoma: na wa o Bagoma, just one quiz you got wrong and im branded for life anyway sha you no need believe in the organiser until you get a mail in your box, and when you open it................its your prize |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by Farriel(m): 9:20am On Jan 16, 2006 |
Talking about Holmes, he was one helluva detective, really. Probably the best we've seen in books. He and Watson made an excellent pair. Looking forward to more quizes, Nicetohave. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by kaylala(m): 12:24pm On Jan 16, 2006 |
I have a collection of all his adventures. Holmes and Watson made a good pair. |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by cushman(m): 5:26pm On Jan 16, 2006 |
What about Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot? |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by kaylala(m): 9:43pm On Jan 16, 2006 |
Never heard of ther |
Re: James Hadley Chase Novels: Share Your Experience by nicetohave(m): 6:05pm On Jan 17, 2006 |
