"A breezy debut noir set in Tinseltown circa 1934. Mort (The Hemingway Patrols) generally keeps the banter-filled proceedings as bubbly as the beverage his handsome protagonist frequent shares with a number of knockouts. Readers will hope to see more of Bruno." -- Publishers Weekly "The terms noir and delightful usually aren't used together, but they pair up happily in this entertaining romp. Mort has fun with noir conventions but never mocks them-a difficult trick to bring off and he does it masterfully." -- Booklist "Terry Mort writes hard-boiled detective fiction like we all imagine it was once written. Enjoyable and entertaining." -- Bookgasm
