G&B Detective Agency: Case of the Femme Fatale

by R.L. Link

Book six of the G&B Detective Agency series takes Max and Skip into the world of hardboiled detective fiction, film noir, and the far fringes of the modern-day publishing business, all worked together into a steamy story of intrigue and murderous intentions. Max Mosbey and Skip Murray walk into the offices of the G&B Detective Agency after a hard weekend of drinking and batching it while the ladies are off on a shopping trip to New York City and find themselves thrown into the hardboiled detective world of Sam Spade, Phillip Marlow and Mike Hammer. Waiting in their reception area is their very own femme fatale in the person of Madeline Moscow, author of the Patience series of detective novels. Madeline launches them into a case that is somewhere between the present and the past. While the case spins with no progress to show for their efforts, the two detectives begin to wonder who the real Madeline Moscow is, and if they are working a case for her or if they are nothing more than characters in another of Madeline’s stories. Rollie Link retired from police work in 2006. Beginning with his early days in patrol, for twenty-nine years he worked every aspect of law enforcement until his return to patrol and his retirement as a day shift patrol lieutenant. Over the years on the department, he regularly pooled with his fellow officers to play the Powerball, and like everyone who plays the lottery, he spent hours thinking about what he would do if he ever won. After years of not even coming close, he decided to put those daydreams on paper. Join millionaire Detectives Max Mosbey, Skip Murray, their business associates Delbert Moss, and Brian Parker, Ames Police officers Milton Jackson and Sarah Foster for another case in the G&B Detective saga.
