Reviews"Full of vivid characters and snappy dialogue, this entry will delight old fans and garner new ones."-- Publishers Weekly "His dialogue rivals that of the late Elmore Leonard." -- Booklist " Don't Look for Me is so old-school, with its world-weary private eye, cynical villains and sultry dames, that it's new again." -- The New York Times Book Review "For readers who mourn the passing of the classic American private eye who drinks hard liquor, ogles the dames and cracks one-liners out of the side of his mouth, Walker's your man. And the sweet part is that he's the genuine article--a decent guy trying to do an honest job in a society that no longer shares his working-class ethic or values his skills. Except, of course, for us."-- The New York Times Book Review on You Know Who Killed Me "Estleman has piled up enough literary awards to add a wing to his home. Read this classic yet modern example of the hard-boiled detective novel and you'll begin to understand why."-- Booklist on Infernal Angels
Series Volume Number27
