'After forty years, Hammett has a worthy successor' The Times Rick
Wendell never made an enemy in his life, but he died all the same;
and Larry Johns was found standing over him with the gun in his
hand still smoking. But Dave Brandstetter, who doesn't share the
police's prejudice about Wendell's lifestyle, can't see it as an
open-and-shut case. What was Johns' motive? What happened to the
cash Wendell withdrew that day? As he asks the questions no one
wants to hear, he comes to realise the danger of assumptions -
particularly where love and money are involved. Troublemaker is the
third Dave Brandstetter novel - one of the best fictional PIs in
the business, and one of the first ever gay ones. Joseph Hansen's
groundbreaking novels follow Brandstetter as he investigates cases
in which motives are murky, passions run high, and nothing is ever
as simple as it looks. Set in 1970s and 80s California, the series
is a fascinating portrait of a time and a place, with mysteries to
match Chandler and Macdonald.
