Mark
McCracken's
private
eye
novel
The
Sausalito
Ferry
to
Hell
features
San
Francisco
based
shamus
Sean
O'Farrell.
It
is
a
period
piece
set
during
the
1930's
though
the
period
never
figures
into
McCracken's
narrative
in
an
important
way.
McCracken,
like
many
practitioners
of
this
style,
makes
great
use
of
setting
and
he
familiarizes
readers
early
on
with
San
Francisco
and
its
environs.
It
isn't
Raymond
Chandler
and
Los
Angeles
level
where
the
city
is
practically
another
character
in
the
novel,
but
McCracken
does
a
respectable
job
of
emphasizing
its
importance.
O'Farrell,
as
a
character,
is
a
mix
of
the
Hammett
styled
rough-hewn
private
investigator,
but
there
are
shades
of
Ross
Macdonald's
Lew
Archer
present
in
the
detective's
more
vulnerable
moments.
It
makes
for
an
effective combination.
