3.0
An enjoyable private eye story set in the forties. At some point it becomes predictable, still an entertaining read. Must love the central character and his dry humour though.
I don't like the idea that the author is copy-catting different crime authors, I'd rather he wrote in his own style. The first installment seemed more genuine, as Simenon wrote in French.
I do like the way the novels are linked through some key characters, canvasing their own universe.
