  1. Orrie Hitt’s 1957 novel Trailer Tramp falls into the trailer camp sleaze sub-genre. Sex and sin in trailer camps adding up to trouble. Hitt was a genius at combining sleaze and noir. This book has both although he certainly wrote better books.

  2. Dial ‘M’ for Man is an excellent 1962 Orrie Hitt novel. He's usually described as a writer of sleaze fiction but mostly his books are noir fiction with some sleaze. This one is pure noir fiction. An honest TV repairman meets a dangerous blonde.
