Another rousing adventure for Toby Peters, 1940s PI in Los Angeles.

Someone is gunning for Toby's childhood neighbour, Marion Morrison, aka John Wayne. The actor doesn't know why, Toby doesn't know why, and no one seem to know the killer. But Wayne isn't the first target. As bodies keep falling, Toby keeps getting deeper and more confused.

Then Charlie Chaplin enters the picture, being owed money by suspects in the John Wayne case.

Communists, con-men, goons, murderers, actors, a wedding, and more than a few news aches and bruises, for Toby.

Great fun. This is probably my favourite series that I read. Never disappointing.

But you should be reading this series from the very beginning. I'm not even sure that anyone's ever going to read this... I mean, if you've already ten books in the series, you don't need someone else's opinion about it. ( )
