Publisher's Synopsis
Sam Turner has always had a romantic yearning to be Sam Spade. So he tells his men?s group in York that he?s a private eye ? it?s better than admitting he?s an unemployed alcoholic.
But then one of his friends asks for help in tracking an erring wife. So suddenly Sam is a P.I. And the next thing he knows, he?s on the track of a serial killer ? with the help of a street-liver and an ex-English teacher pensioner. . .
?Exceedingly cunning, laid back plot . . . Genial, fast and funny?
Philip Oaks, Literary Review
?Something quite unexpected . . . Entrancing ? and funny?
Natasha Cooper, TLS
