I usually drink two glasses of bourbon, add a little coffee, and then have two more when the long night is almost over to steady myself. There, I can read the newspaper, eat a hamburger, or have a full meal. If I don’t want to talk, I can also take a quiet moment there. I’m not there all day, but I go there at least once a day. Sometimes when Danny opens the door, I go in; I only leave when Billy closes it. Everyone needs a place to be, right? The Mosley Bar was robbed, "Miss Kitty’s" ledger was stolen, and Mrs. Delory was killed. The three parties involved all asked Matthew to help uncover the truth. After clues were discovered one by one, the scattered pieces of the three cases gradually came together, and all the truth came to light. Matthew will have his own solution.

Author Lawrence Block is hailed as the "melancholy soul wandering in New York," and many elites are obsessed with him. recommended his books to Tony Leung Chiu-wai, who hoped to play a role in his works. Zhu Tianxin said of Block, "He is a master of genre fiction and an unwilling, rebellious transgressor." For forty years, Block has accompanied the down-and-out, stubborn Matthew Scudder, as well as the gentleman thief Bernie Rhodensbar, the sleepless spy Ivan Tarnoy, and the cold-blooded killer Keller, witnessing New York’s ultimate prosperity and depravity. Even if the murderer is exposed on the first page, it doesn’t affect his works. Some say Block’s skill is to first see terror in the bloodshed, then turn terror into suspense, and then seek understanding in the suspense—to understand why killers kill and why victims die.
