Reviews

[Srf221 · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hardboiled at it's best.

[Maddy · Rating 4 out of 5]

PROTAGONIST: Big Dick Rickenbacher, PI
SETTING: Chicago
RATING: 3.5
WHY: Unlicensed PI Big Dick Rickenbacher is hired to find a missing young woman. He's turned up a lot of dead ends after checking out almost every sleazy bar and strip joint in the Windy City. His definition of justice won't be found in the legal dictionary. His case intersects with one of his former partner's, homicide lieutenant Sal Castellano. The conclusion is provocative. Classic hardboiled/noir.
