|summary=What's in a name? A lot if you decide to call your book ''So Nude, So Dead''. This is a title to conjure with, what on Earth is it about? As this is a ''Hard Case'' title it is likely to be hardboiled and not adverse to a little violence and titillation. However, consider that the book was once call ''The Evil Sleep!'' and has since been renamed; is this more a case of the title selling the book rather than accurately portraying its content?

|summary=Bill Hodges is a retired cop, spiralling down into a seemingly inescapable depression. Stuck at home each day watching dreadful American daytime TV, toying with the idea of shooting himself, it is only with the sudden arrival of a letter claiming to be from someone who committed an unsolved multiple murder, one of Hodges’ old cases, that he finds a new interest in staying alive. Is this actually the murderer? Why is he crawling out of the woodwork now? And can Hodges stop him from killing again?
