I'm exhausted right now so another review I just wrote is about as lacking in pizazz as it cd get. This won't be much better. This was published in 1978 & Goulart makes reference to a country singer president (remember this was BEFORE Reagan was elected) & to the Republican-Democrats & the Democrat-Republicans. Right there I think he deserves cred for precociousness. There's an Amateur Mafia that doesn't allow Italians & an upgrade on the Dr Frankenstein idea that's actually relatively fresh considering how overdone that particular theme is. All in all, an easy read & packed w/ plenty of somewhat juvenile chuckles that're good for people like me who're too tired from working to want to deal w/ anything more intellectually challenging.

An all-star serial killer terrorizes Earth's smartest detectives Raffles Tunny, a juggler in the employ of the United States government, is relaxing at his Swiss chalet when a killer comes to call. He's found the next day, electrocuted in the style of serial murderer Shocker Fulson, the man with the electric touch. The trouble is, Shocker's dead--cremated and interred in New Orleans--and Raffles is not the first victim. Six other government-employed entertainers are have been murdered, all of them killed in the style of an executed madman. A case this insane demands an equally insane detective, which means it's time to call Odd Jobs, Inc. Jake and Hildy Pace have made names for themselves solving impossible murders. But nabbing the copycat lunatic will mean facing down the Amateur Mafia, a gang of belly-button ventriloquists, and the strangest doctor the future has ever seen. One false step, and they'll follow Raffles to the great music hall in the sky. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
