SynopsisThe recipient of The Eye for Lifetime Achievement from the Private Eye Writers of America, Bill Pronzini is a grandmaster of the detective fiction, and his Nameless private investigator continues the Hammett-Chandler-Macdonald tradition of lone investigators down Mean Streets. Nameless's cases are filled with twists, turns and solid clueing. Spadework contains 15 previously uncollected stories, including the Shamus Award winning Cat's Paw and two tales appearing in print for the first time. The book includes an Introduction by Marcia Muller, an afterword by the author, and a checklist of Nameless stories and novels.
