Before Miami Vice, there was Michael Shayne's Miami. Shayne was everything you could want in a private eye. Big, redheaded, and known all over town, Shayne was the original knight in shining armor, helping gorgeous damsels in distress. Davis Dresser wrote under the byline Brett Halliday that he wrote nearly fifty Mike Shayne novels before ghost writers wrote another 27 novels.

This particular novel has an incredibly fast-moving plot. All the action takes place on a single evening - before the stroke of midnight.

There's something here for everyone. Violence for the men readers and a romance with secretary Lucy Hamilton for the female readers. Mysterious clients show up on Shayne's doorstep, ruining their date. Murder, missing corpses, mistaken identity and more fill out this novel. ( )

Mike Shayne is planning an evening with his girl friend when he is called to his office to help a blonde who claims someone is trying to kill her and has already killed her brother. Finding no body makes Shayne and the police doubt her story. When a male's body washes up in the bay and the blonde disappears, the case becomes really murky.

A quick relaxing read. Pure escapism but fun. ( )
