Inside Scoop: Confessions of a Drunk Detective

Detective Derek Adler made a name for himself in New York City after dismantling the case of the Velvet Mist. He spent the Jazz Age dancing and making one-night connections, allowing whispers to follow him during Prohibition as he ended his nights stumbling loosely back home, making a fool of himself with no repercussions. Born with a chip on his shoulder, he could do no wrong, and well into the Great Depression, he remained beloved.
Beloved by all, that is, except for James Anderson, who vowed many years ago to expose the detective for who he truly was: a liar and a coward.
It isn't until 1936 that the men's paths permanently intertwine, stringing together the horrid truths of the details of the Velvet Mist case.

Verity City is drowning in neon and smoke. Theaters rot, radios whisper lies, and every alley hides a face you almost recognize. Reese Calder thought he'd left detective work behind-until a cassette lands on his doorstep. On it: a murder told in his own voice. By morning, the body is real. Each new tape drags Reese deeper into a nightmare: streets that shift, faces that vanish, a city editing itself like film. His reflection flickers in old projectors. His voice bleeds through dead air. And someone is scripting his life-one that always ends in blood. The question isn't who's guilty. It's who's real. A razor-edged noir mystery, where déjà vu kills and every broadcast could be the last. ( Thank you for reading! This story is part of a completed series I've written, so you can enjoy it from start to finish. I hope you get lost in it as much as I did while writing. Enjoy! :)Lengkap

Chicago Typewriter
As Detective Drew Lucy typed up the report on the Waterton case the pretty ankle slipped into his line of sight. It was shaped like trouble. The chief's sixteen-year-old daughter Millie was worried about her brother, Ike, who had started to disappear some nights. The chief could fire Drew for messing with family business, but Drew reluctantly agrees to tail Ike. The trail leads to a speakeasy and the mushrooming business of organized crime during Prohibition in Chicago. Clues from the Ebony Gardens murder point to the same gang, but the gangsters can smell Drew coming, and bullets are cheap. By the time Drew enters the seductive orbit of a mink-eyed vixen addicted to risk, he's in over his head. If he isn't shot full of daylight by gangster tommy guns, he'll drown in Bianca's perfumed embrace. It's enough to make a gumshoe readjust his fedora. ----- This noir flavored detective yarn is set 100 years back in time. It's a bit grittier than my usual breezy output. This story is basically clean and I did not flag it as mature. However, darker human failings (alcohol use, sexual desire, and violence) drive the plot. I don't dwell on those aspects, but it's definitely a story for grownups. The intended audience is new adult or adult. Winner! 2022 Amby Awards, Mystery and Thriller category. Winner! 3rd place in the Ballsy Tea Awards 2022, Action and Adventure category.Lengkap
