The Quick by Dan Vining. It's a private eye book with a supernatural twist. Private investigator Jimmy Miles works
the Hollywood nights. His new client is the desperate daughter of a dead man. Her father was executed for a long-ago murder-and she wants Jimmy to uncover the truth about the crime and the real killer's identity. A well written noir story with an interesting mystery, fascinating characters and a really cool woo woo element. The story did leave some unanswered questions which I hope may be answered in another book if this is intended to be a series. If you are looking for a cozy this isn't it. Rather it's a noirish haunting mystery that may leave more questions than it answers.

Really didn't care much for this one--supposed to be supernatural/suspense--I didn't find it either and frankly didn't see any sense to it.
enjoyed it. good read
A supernatural mystery by an author whom I had not read before. I would be glad to read more with this main character, a detective who usually only works at night.
