I'd read a couple of these and seen the TV adaptation on PBS before picking up this first book and introduction to the series. Very satisfying little mysteries with a cast of wonderfully quirky characters. Though very different characters, I'm enjoying these as much as I enjoy #1 Ladies Detective Agency.
Now on to a noir detective novel set during the depression staring Jack Fleming, Vampire Detective, Lady Crymsyn by P. N. Elrod. Jack has bought and is remodeling and restoring an old night club when a body is found walled into the basement.... All kinds of complications present themselves: publicity, a cop that dislikes Jack, and the possibility that finding the killer will complicate Jack's stand with the Chicago Mob community.
