So when private investigator Jack Tarelli is called to the home of an enigmatic billionaire just hours after an unspeakable murder, he knows a long, long night has only just begun.Led on a chase into the shadowy underbelly of a city that never wakes, the hard-nosed and uncompromising Jack will stop at nothing to track down a deadly killer whose motives are shrouded in corruption, betrayal and deceit. But as connections to Jack's own dark and mysterious past arise, it becomes clear that this is more than a search for the truth; it's a race against time.Drawing on the classic Noir style, this Science-Fiction/Mystery novella will leave you breathless and begging for more.

And, you know, it's not a bad story. Jack's a great character with a dry sarcastic wit, and the plot itself is suspenseful -- just enough twists and turns to keep the reader guessing. Still, I have to give it just two stars for "It was okay" because, well, for example, the author used "alter" when the correct word was "altar"; "who's" when the correct usage was "whose"; and ellipses... all... over... the... freaking... place. Seriously. If I saw the phrase "Jack the Knife..." once, I saw it a hundred times.
Still, I give C.B. McCullough credit: he wrote and published an almost-good book. I'd love to see what could have been made of it with a decent editor and some re-writes.
