⭐ very nice book ,got it on they exact date i was told,excellent condition

⭐ A slow burner. Got there eventually. What an amazing masterful, well plotted and entertaining read. Left me guessing alternate ending.

⭐ Gradually getting thro all of his books . Never a dull moment .GREAT

⭐ Dirk Wallace, a shamus working for the Parnell Detective Agency in Paradise City, is assigned by his boss to a missing person case. In his search for clues and information, Wallace broadens the scope of his investigation to cover a whole range of actors on the assumption that one never knows which information is pertinent. As a consequence of this approach, he stumbles upon a murky nexus that springs into action to stop anyone from getting too close to its activities. This book is not a thriller; the focus is on the nuts and bolts of the shamus’s investigation of the case and on the final piecing together of a jigsaw puzzle which includes two murders.

⭐ Although the beginning was a bit as always, the ending was worth the wait.Good one, will start another soon.

⭐ good
