About This Book

When Jack agrees to take a package across America, he doesn't know if he'll live to tell the tale. If the CIA, the Feds and the British Secret Service don't get him then the mob will. How's a cowardly private dick going to survive in these bloody times?
The Case is a stand-alone pulp noir novel. A wry take on the jaw-dropping violent side of private investigator life by Leopold Borstinski, writer of the six-book Lagotti Family series.

Author's Warning
This stand-alone pulp fiction novel flits around Jake's life weaving a tale which spreads from the 1940s to the 1990s as he tries to piece together the clues to discover what is so valuable that government agencies and organized criminals might want to get their hands on a crummy old case. Before the story is over, Jake witnesses incest, robbery, kidnapping, torture and murder: a typical day in the life of a private dick.
Contains violence, some profanity and surprisingly few scenes of a sexual nature.
