The Shadow Files
Jack Wilde, investigator for hire, lives in an edgy world where the dames are dangerous, cigarettes dangle from ruby-red lips and the nights are hotter than whiskey-soaked jazz. In this riveting noir thriller from R.J. Jagger, Wilde is hired by a seductive young attorney to run down a loose end on one of her cases. The assignment appears simple and straightforward and most importantly doesn't look like the kind of thing that will kill him. It isn’t long before he finds out just how wrong he can be.
