Six Seconds of Darkness
The leader of a reformist political movement to root out political corruption in the city, Edward Hamilton is murdered, and the local Police Department is mightily confused when three people turn themselves in as the killer and confess the murder. First one is the victim's beautiful ward; second one is an elderly loon who for years has been accusing the victim of swindling him; and the third and final one is the fiance of the beautiful ward. Police Commissioner Hall pulls the atypical move and turns over this high interest murder investigation to a private investigator David Carroll believing he is the only one who can solve the mystery.
The Cases of Detective Jim Hanvey
Jim Hanvey is not a typical private detective. He is overweight, he waddles around, he blinks like some sort of fish, he plays with a gold toothpick that he wears on a chain around his waist. But what he has is a great memory for faces, a sharp mind, and a sense of fair play that makes him very well respected and feared by the higher level of criminals. Once he enters the story, we see the swindle begin to unravel – sometimes because of Hanvey, sometimes because the mere presence of Hanvey upsets the criminal to such an extent that he does himself in. Table of Contents: Fish Eyes Homespun Silk Common Stock Helen of Troy Caveat Emptor The Knight's Gambit Pink Bait
