The best of the Moe Prager noir mysteries so far. He continues getting better with each book. This one's main theme is a death in the distant past and one more recent. I'm so glad these books were reprinted so I had the opportunity to read them as I hadn't heard of this author before.
Another good entry in the series with Moe hired to solve the mystery of an intern's death to help a politician reclaim his reputation. Nice twists and turns, leading to a satisfying denouement.
I liked this story much better than Redemption road. The characters were more believable and the plot kept me going.
This guy is amazing, truly one of the best!! 5 stars all the way!!
Moe Prager reluctantly takes a job looking into the disappearance of a young woman who was interning for an up and coming state senator. Moe is a great character and the story had just enough plot twists to keep me turning the pages.
First line
"The reception was at the Lonesome Piper Country Club."
I am a huge Moe Praeger fan and in the process of reading all of the books in this series. But I must say that this book is in my top 10 for this year so far. It is a fantastic whodunit and just is so well written. Moe is a just a fantastic character and a PI just you just grow to adore. I read this book in two days while going to work because I could not put it down.

i think i finally have a clear idea of the difference between a hard-boiled mystery and a regular mystery. i love the depth of this book.
Enjoyed this a lot. Some characterization, but not so much that it overshadows the story. Plot fairly standard but well executed. The feel of the settings add to the whole thing for a nice sort of noir lite. Will try more
