"Simple but effective"

This was a good story, spoiled somewhat by the mistakes scattered through it. I like the Alex French character; he's more 'normal' than a lot of private eyes. His two female sidekicks play their part in keeping it real. There are a lot worse ways of spending a couple of hours; close your eyes to the typos and just enjoy the ride.
