Discover the lost crime novel by the noir legend behind Mildred Pierce, Double Indemnity, and The Postman Always Rings Twice-now published here for the first time!
Following her husband's death in a suspicious car accident, beautiful young widow Joan Medford is forced to take a job serving drinks in a cocktail lounge to make ends meet and to have a chance of regaining custody of her young son.
At the job, she encounters two men who take an interest in her-a handsome young schemer who makes her blood race and a wealthy but unwell older man who rewards her for her attentions with a $50,000 tip and an unconventional offer of marriage . . .
Now published for the very first time, The Cocktail Waitress is the last, lost crime novel of James M. Cain-the legendary noir author who wrote some of the greatest classics of the genre, including Mildred Pierce, Double Indemnity, and The Postman Always Rings Twice.
