Great private eye novel from a little known series. Released at the same time as a slight revival in men's adventure series and got lost in the shuffle.
Braqg is a PI who is called on to trace the origins of a soft core photo of a minor criminal boss' daughter. As a shamus worth is wait in gold, Lynch immediately stumbles on a body while pursuing an answer. It's the first of several bodies as the case points to shady doing in a new housing development.
Bragg is a little atypical of the genre. There are less wisecracks and more heart in his story as he finds himself helping out a poor little rich girl and a lonely cocktail waitress among others. Well done, deserves to be more widely known. ( )
