That's the one I thought of when I first read this thread (just now). I read the wiki entry yesterday, when looking up stuff about Ira Levin. Think I'll check some of his books, also Richard Condon's.

Me?

It's been a long time since I read it but I remember it being a bit clunkier than the others. His thing seems to be to put the twist in the *middle* of the book, leaving it to echo around the second half, and I don't think he does that as well here as any of his other books really. And I think it's the only one not set in the real world.
