3. Devil In Her Heart - A GOOD MAN IS HARD TO KILL—
BUT SHE’S GIVING IT HER BEST SHOT.
It looked like the perfect Hollywood ending for the detecting duo that stole a million dollars from the Chicago mob—Lou Fleener, P.I., and his best buddy Monk. Lou’s blissfully married, and the brilliant but awkward Monk just made them both another million and then rode off into the sunset with the girl of his dreams…
…straight into the den of the Los Angeles mobster he beat in a poker game six months ago.
The gangster's intent on getting his money back, with interest—i.e., everything Monk owns. But Monk’s already figured out that after he takes everything, the wise guy’s going to kill him.
However, due to his newly broken heart, he hardly cares. His new love is none other than the mobster’s daughter, sent to lure him from Chicago back to L.A. And this time Lou, the toughest street fighter in Chicago, isn’t around to protect him.
But maybe brains will get him through—Monk’s specialty is elaborate and wickedly audacious schemes. If he can stay alive, he’s got a plan to find Lou, keep the money, and get even with that...she-devil.
Or maybe get her back.
Because she couldn’t really be that bad, could she?
4. The Classy Detective Agency - WHO KNEW FAKING CLASS
WOULD BE SO DANGEROUS?
In Duane Lindsay’s latest action-packed noir thriller, private eye Lou Fleener does what he does best: wisecrack, roam his beloved hometown, and get into a hell of a lot of street fights. It’s 1960 in glamorous Chicago, and Lou and his wife Cassidy (turned sardonic, ever-scheming partner in crime), are broke. In need of fast cash, they devise a scheme to advertise themselves as sophisticated private eyes catering to the city’s elite.
But it turns out they aren’t the only ones running a con. Whip-smart as they are, they aren’t prepared for the stealthy criminals hiding among Chicago’s rich and famous.
While hobnobbing at a fancy party, the Classy Detectives catch the eye of a bored socialite who’s cooking up a scheme with a genius art thief. The conspirators are casing a local exhibit that’s chock full of famous, lucrative paintings. But the larcenous pair need a fall guy: they figure that if they put an appropriate suspect in the right place at the right time, they can breezily lift the loot.
So they hire Lou and Cassidy to “guard” the paintings. The Classy Detectives are over the moon: they think they’ve been hired to eat hamburgers and hang out outside the museum.
One dead cop later, they realize they’ve been set up. Quicker than you can say, “Go Cubs!” Cassidy’s arrested. Even worse, the headline LOU FLEENER: COP KILLER is plastered across newspapers and blaring out of radios. Only too obviously, this is the time to concoct Plan B--and thereon hangs a rollicking tale.
5. Ticket to Heaven - HE CAN’T TAKE IT WITH HIM…
SO HE’S GONE TO PLAN B—
It’s 1961 and Chicago’s sleaziest businessman is trying to pay off his sins. The cruel, strange real estate tycoon Elwood Tymms-- known as “Terrible Tymms”-- is dying. But go figure— he’s somehow got the idea the wages of sin will pave his way past the pearly gates.
So before he goes, he’s trying to throw all his money to charitable causes in an off-the-wall effort to buy his way into heaven.
But Tymms has a problem: he’s got so many enemies he can hardly walk out his front door without running into a hitman or two. He might end up assassinated before he can finish giving away his cash— and in his mind that means he’d end up in hell.
Enter private investigator and prodigious street fighter Lou Fleener. Lou’s been scaring off clients ever since his last rollicking caper got him falsely branded as a cop killer. To make matters worse, his gorgeous, sharp-tongued wife Cassie has earned a bogus reputation as an art thief.
Low on booze and cigarettes, Cassie and Lou feel forced to do something no upstanding Chicagoan would be willing to do: help Tymms by tracking down his would-be murderer.
And in the meantime, they agree to act as his security detail-- which means that Tymms ends up taking shelter in their apartment. Big surprise-- he’s not the best roommate. And to make matters much worse, his attempted killer may be closer than you’d think...
As usual, Lou and Cassie’s semi-hardboiled adventures are perfect for armchair travelers who want a glimpse of vintage Chicago with a side of action and another of laughs.. The eccentric Tymms shines through as the most ridiculously wealthy scumbag this side of Citizen Kane. Plus, author Lindsay includes plenty of high-stakes brawls for fans of scrappy fighting.
7. Money to Burn - WHO YOU GONNA CALL WHEN
YOUR HEIST GOES WRONG?
It should have been the perfect heist. The crooks thought of everything—scoped out a briefcase full of bearer bonds, distracted the driver of its armored car, and used some old-fashioned firepower for gentle persuasion.
All neat and tidy except for one thing—there’s nothing in the briefcase but blank paper.
Well, they’re not going to take this lying down! They hire private investigator Lou Fleener to get their loot back.
Then Lou’s business partners—his feisty wife Cassidy and their brilliant friend Monk—get hired to find the briefcase by its original owners.
A once-in-a-lifetime piece of luck! Ethics thrown to the wind, they’re now working both sides of the case, and feeling pretty smug about it. What could be better?
Just about anything, it turns out.
8. The Contract - HE’S GOT A TARGET ON HIS BACK...
PITY THE WANNABE HIT MAN.
Some dimwit in New York’s put out a contract on Lou Fleener, private detective and street fighter extraordinaire. A completely boneheaded move—these Big Apple goons have no idea who they’re dealing with.
And a totally unjust one too—all Lou did was accidentally start a gang war in Chicago. Hardly worth mentioning.
A few toughs try their luck at taking him out (and wish they hadn’t), but when an innocent citizen’s killed in a drive-by intended for Lou, he decides enough is enough. He figures he’ll just find out who’s footing the bill and ask them to cancel the contract.
So Lou and Cassidy, his beautiful, fierce, and fiercely loyal sharp-shooter wife, head for New York, bringing Lou's unique brand of one-man gang warfare. He'd have been happy to talk it out. He asked nice, but they wanted a war. So they got Lou, who’s always way more trouble than anybody's ever expecting.
Even with a bum ankle, Lou’s still the best street fighter in Chicago. And in New York, he’s also got a secret weapon—a smooth New York P.I. who knows his way around the local crime empires.
As always, a good part of the fun is watching everyone underestimate a short, pudgy underdog, and the satisfaction of witnessing their thoroughgoing annihilation.
