Reseña del libro "Storm Maker: An Oscar Jade Thriller"
Oscar Jade, a private detective in Miami Beach in 1942, is investigating the suicide of a friend...and he doesn't believe it's a suicide. As he investigates, the stakes soon escalate to life and death - for a great many people - and it soon becomes clear that a world war is about to be fought, right here - at home."Suddenly, his eyes darted to his right, and his head tilted in the same direction, as if he suddenly had something new to think about before he continued to speak. A black hole the size of a quarter appeared just above his left eye, and a dense crimson spray filled the air behind his head. His knees buckled and he went down, backward, like a sack of potatoes, falling against the hood of the Studebaker and then bouncing off. He pitched forward onto the street, hitting face first. It was only then that Jade registered the crack of a gunshot from somewhere above, echoing down along the street like a dark afterthought." - Storm Maker, Chapter 18"Prepare to be taken on a journey to 1942 Miami Beach where the drinks are straight, the villain is ruthless and the anti-hero - the club-footed, hard-drinking, harder punching Oscar Jade - is the last man you'd want on your tail. Storm Maker is the antithesis to many novels written today - a nostalgic blast where monochrome images of Bogart and Bergman are conjured in the mind and the soundtrack crackles under the scratchy needle on an uneven gramophone. Loeffelholz writes in the Raymond Chandler vein..." - A P Bateman, Amazon #1 Best-Selling Author
