Bøger af Dave Zeltserman

From award-winning mystery author Dave Zeltserman a short story collection showcasing three detectives and three very different types of mysteries: traditional mysteries featuring Boston's brilliant and eccentric detective Julius Katz and his most unusual sidekick, Archie, crime thrillers with Morris Brick, his trusty bull terrier, Parker, and the rest of the MBI team, and hardboiled crime stories with Hell's only operating private eye, Mike Stone. This collection features nine stories, including a new Julius Katz mystery novella, Julius Katz and the Ruined Roast, and a new Morris Brick crime thriller, James & Bond.

The award-winning Julius Katz mysteries have delighted thousands of mystery fans since first appearing on the pages of Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in 2009, winning a Shamus, Derringer and two Ellery Queen's Readers Awards. 'Julius Katz' introduced readers to Boston's most brilliant, eccentric and possibly laziest detective, Julius Katz, as well as his sidekick, Archie, a tiny marvel of whiz-bang computer technology with the heart and soul of a hard-boiled PI.Now in Julius Katz and Archie's first full-length mystery, the stakes have never been higher when a famous Boston mystery writer, Kenneth Kingston, announces to Julius that he wants him to find out who's planning to kill him. The problem is almost everyone in Kingston's life has good reason to murder him, and this case soon plunges Julius and Archie deep into the world of murder and publishing.
