I have always wanted to read this series and glad I have finally started it. It was fun being transported back a few decades. I also loved the setting of Detroit. I haven't read any books I can remember set there. ( ) Motor City Blue is the first of Loren Estleman's Amos Walker mysteries. Amos Walker is a private detective in Detroit. I didn't think I was going to like this book for the first 50 or so pages but then I decided I did like it. Liked it enough to probably read the next one. Full of violence, drugs and drinking and seedy characters. In Motor City Blue Walker is hired to find a missing woman and leads to a bunch of other events. The young woman left a finishing school and ended up in a brothel. Amos Walker is private detective, hired by a retired Detroit mobster to find his missing ward, Marla Bernstein. She disappeared from her finishing school with a unknown man and there is s photo showing that she may be involved in prostitution and/or adult films. Walker has been trying to see if an insurer was being scammed with a faked injury, when he witnesses his CO from Vietnam grabbed by two thugs, and ending up dead in a car trunk. The CO was working for military intelligence looking into the killing of a rising labor organizer. The two stories become integrated in more ways than one as Amos pulls at the few threads to find the truth. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
