Collected here for the first time are the first three cases of Sam Truman, disgraced ex-private investigator with a new lease on life-investigating the most bizarre, supernatural, and otherworldly cases the City's underworld can throw at him.In Catch My Killer! by Ed Kurtz, Sam is introduced to the weird goings-on of his beloved city when he plugs a would-be armed robber only to have the dead man show up at his door, possessed by the spirit of a murdered woman with a plea to solve the crime. Next, Sam is looking into a spate of local killings when he accidentally stumbles upon a secret extraterrestrial invasion plot in The Last Invasion by Brandon Zuern. Finally, Tobin Elliott's Soft Kiss, Hard Death pits Sam against a series of beautiful identical women with a lot of love to give, a love that proves deadly for any man who crosses their slimy path.
