About this listen

When a client disappears before she can give him his assignment, Detroit PI Amos Walker must hunt down a woman he barely knows

After a tour in Vietnam and several years working the streets of Detroit as a private investigator, Amos Walker has seen a lot. But he’s never encountered anything quite like his newest assignment. Ann Maringer, an aging stripper hard at work at one of the city’s many low-grade joints, hires him to find a missing person: herself. She expects to disappear any day now, she says, and she wants to be found.

He goes to her apartment the next day, hoping for more information, but Ann was true to her word and has disappeared completely, leaving behind nothing but a carton of Bel-Airs and a dead man on the floor. Unshaken by the body or the circumstances, Walker sets out to find his client. After all, she paid in advance.

Overall a 4* review

I have to say, as a new author to me, this is very good, character development not overly done, but done in a tasteful manner. Location is well descent for the time it is set.

Definitely will listen/ read more of these books.

Period noir thriller

I would read these books just for the wittitudes and sarcasm of Amos, his observations and punch lines (in the non-violent sense!) A great number of other interesting characters in there as well. there's nothing that Amos Walker doesn't know.

Satisfyingly more twists than a cork screw

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Not as good or as gripping as book 1, the story meanders and becomes overly wordy. Hoping book 3 is more entertaining

Disappointing

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I did enjoy this story and the excellent narration. Until the last couple of chapters. At that point the story became a confusing mess of “action”/ death-and-destruction embedded in tangled plot lines. Too much hard work to sort it all out.

Starts well. Ends in chaos
