where's moody?

Moody Forever even better than Moody Gets the Blues. What a wonderful character. Where is Steve Oliver and will there be another in the series?

No one ever gets the blues with a Moody mystery

In 1979 Spokane, veteran Scott Moody is struggling with regaining control of his life. He has recently spent time in a mental institution and has quit his job as a private investigator. Instead, the former Nam grunt works on a newspaper and drives a cab. Though Scott hopes to one-day return to his ex-wife and child, he dates the beautiful heiress Xanthia Welch. As he makes progress in straightening himself out, Moody has a setback, not of his making. He is the prime suspect in the stabbing murder of Xanthia's father, Andrew, an eminent businessman. Moody re-dons his sleuthing cap as he tries to prove his innocence by solving the murder in which he is the only witness. Readers will forever know the type of who-done-it that stars Scott Moody. Like the debut tale (MOODY GETS THE BLUES), the second novel is a humorous, but convoluted satire of mysteries. Moody remains charming in a weird way and the support cast is a twisted crowd who add to the facetiousness even as they propel the story line forward. Though not for everyone, Steve Oliver has scribed a tale that will leaves fans of the offbeat mystery shouting MOODY FOREVERHarriet Klausner
