BLONDE & BLUE Classic Private Eyes

This entertaining collection of nine stories offers the twists and turns you'd expect from mysteries, along with a pleasing variety of sleuths--you may know some investigators, but others you'll be meeting for the first time. More familiar will be the voices of those narrating. Highlights of this anthology include Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., who brings a kind of gritty crime-scene edge to his reading; Loretta Swit, who is perfect as a tough former military assassin; and Jamie Farr, as a small-time detective who likes to fence in his spare time. All nine narrators bring out interesting facets of the individual detectives whose stories they tell while nailing that slightly jaded tone common to the P.I. J.C.G.
