About this title: The lyrically noir adventures of Montana private investigator C.W. Sughrue continue with this addition to a long-running series. Sughrue is reluctant to take on the case offered him by his friend Dr. William MacKinderick, a fellow player on his softball team. But a fee of 20 grand dispels his reservations, and he agrees to discover who stole seven patient files from the psychiatrist's office. Naturally, the trail turns out to be dirty and bloody.

"Amazing, dark, incredibly violent but with a humanity to it to gives it depth and wrings your heart the way so many noir writers simply fail to do. And you can't put it down...Crumley is one of my favourite writers. But not someone to read when you need cheering up, which I did."
"I had a wonderful spring rediscovering the late James Crumley and his wonderfully flawed private eyes C.W. Sughrue and Milo. The mysteries are solid but take a backseat to the distinctive characters who inhabit the forbidding underworld of the west and southwest. These are folks who make you smile and wince and stay with you forever. Read them all."
