My Darling Detective

My Darling Detective is an engaging tale in the style of the classic detective noir. It begins when Jacob Rigolet's mother turns up at an auction to deface a valuable photograph of soldiers in WWII. The incident opens up a cold case and new details about Jacob's past, eventually leading to a tense resolution. Throughout is a radio program that somewhat mirrors the lives of Jacob and his detective fiancee Martha. All in all it is an entertaining story, and librarians and library-lovers will enjoy how central the library is to the narrative.
