Customer Reviews

Leonidas (Bill) a detective for the 40's!

He looks like a famous playwrite of long ago, thus his nickname of Bill. He solves murders, so he won't be arrested himself, and he has help from a very odd assortment of characters. When all else fails he thinks of "Cannae" (where the Romans were torn to "shreds" by the army of Hannibal) and everything comes out alright. It's funny, it's witty and you find you wouldn't mind finding a body in your own garage done in with a pickaxe if only you had half the fun the people in this book do.
