Private Dick Hackney McTrite (Paperback)

First in the Hackney McTrite Series. Murder! Adultery! Conspiracy! Wrap these treacheries with a web of intrigue and this enticing PI adventure boils. Add the charm and uniqueness of New Orleans and Paris and enchantment is spawned. Sprinkle it with Letitia, a saucy Italian-American seeking a divorce from her mob-boss husband Alphonse Infantino, and you have cunning and deceit. Complete the characters with a down on his luck private dick who uses cliches with every breath and your funny bone gets tickled. Add it all together and Walker Jackson's fast moving thriller portraying McTrite's close encounters with the New Orleans Mob leap from the pages. My first agent said, "I was taken by it." So will you. Get hooked.
