‘A talent worth investigating. There’s a satiric bite to his work.’ Ross MacDonald, New York Times bestselling author
Get four complete mysteries with lots of laughs. Hours of entertainment. Aquick-witted hustler who can talk his way into a job, out of a beating, and straight into twice as much trouble. These crimes have humour, twists and some mad-cap plots. And they are unbeatable value.
Small-time conman Harry Gould takes one scam too far, forcing him to flee New York — only to land in Los Angeles where he accidentally take a job as a bodyguard to a man with a price on his head. Across four thrill-packed adventures, Harry fakes identities, dodges bullets, and talks his way through cons, cover-ups, and corpses — all while trying to stay one step ahead of the law, the mob, and his own bad luck.
MEET HARRY GOULD
Harry isn’t a detective — he just ends up solving crimes because it beats getting shot. He’s a fast-talking conman with a loose relationship to the truth, a knack for pissing off the wrong people, and a survival instinct sharper than his sense of direction. Whether he’s impersonating a bodyguard, dodging hitmen, or accidentally seducing the boss’s daughter, he never stays in a place long enough before trouble forces him to vanish.
Harry’s philosophy is simple: lie big, run fast, and never let them see you sweat — even if you’re bleeding.
There laugh-out-loud and gripping crime thrillers are perfect for fans of Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen, Richard S. Prather, Donald E. Westlake and Lawrence Block.
