Secured Car Loan AND An Elvis Cole Novel Paperbac
If you have yet to begin the marvelous Elvis
Cole series by Robert Crais, you've got a great treat ahead of you! Few
series get off to a stronger start than Mr. Crais did with The Monkey's
Raincoat, which won both the Anthony and Macavity awards for best novel
while being nominated for the Edgar and Shamus awards as well.
Stalking the Angel followed powerfully with classic noir style of the
1930s hard-boiled detective up against evil, but moderated with wise
cracks. And the books just keep getting better from there in their
characterizations, action, story-telling and excitement.
Elvis Cole
is the star attraction, the co-owner of The Elvis Cole Detective Agency.
He's now 38, ex-Army, served in Vietnam, ex-security guard, has two
years of college, learned to be a detective by working under George
Feider, a licensed P.I. for over 40 years, does martial arts as
enthusiastically as most people do lunch, and is fearless but not
foolish. He's out to right the wrongs of the world as much as he is to
earn a living. Elvis has a thing for Disney characters (including a
Pinocchio clock), kids, cats, scared clients and rapid fire repartee.
He drives a Jamaica yellow 1966 Corvette Stingray convertible, and
usually carries a .38 Special Dan Wesson.
His main foil is partner,
Joe Pike, an ex-Marine, ex-cop who moves quietly and mysteriously
wearing shades even in the dark . . . when he's not scaring the bad guys
with the red arrows tattooed on his deltoids, which are usually bare in
sleeveless shirts. Although he's got an office with Elvis, Pike spends
all of his time at his gun shop when not routing the bad guys with
martial arts while carrying and often using enough firepower to stop a
tank. Pike rarely speaks . . . and never smiles.Read more
