Big redheaded Shayne, no matter who penned the stories, was a very popular and some might say even generic hardboiled detective. Based in Miami, Shayne had a long term relationship with his secretary Lucy Hamilton, often tangled with the local police who didn't want him butting into police business, and was best buds with a local reporter. This one is probably not the pinnacle of the Shayne series as the plot is a bit convoluted and it's a bit slow to get rolling. Despite that, none of the Mike Shayne stories are really a bad read. This particular tale involves a trip to Hollywood, a night chasing Fidel Castro's ex-mistress, a man with a knife in his gut in Shayne's office, and strange mysterious twists.
