Fast, sharp, and tinged with irony, Just a Bit Too Fast is a classic slice of late-1920s pulp crime fiction from Hal Moore—where bluff, disguise, and nerve matter more than careful planning.
When a quiet branch bank is held up by a gun-wielding “old woman,” two plainclothes detectives—one local, one visiting—are left staring at an empty counter and a fast-disappearing getaway car. The robber, the notorious Thought-and-a-half Morgan, has already slipped the net once, and the chase that follows cuts quickly through rain-dark streets, bad leads, and a hunch rooted in earlier intelligence.
The hunt ends not in brilliance, but in a tense, shadowed ambush inside a shabby downtown hideout, where timing, luck, and a single misaligned flashlight beam decide the outcome. In the aftermath, one detective takes credit for flawless tactics—but the truth, quietly admitted, tells a different story.
Narrated with grit and restraint by Mike Polischuk, Just a Bit Too Fast delivers a lean, street-smart crime tale that captures the spirit of early pulp fiction: hard edges, fast movement, and victories that owe as much to chance as to courage.
