While in a hole-in-the-wall bar, a young and gorgeous girl (most of the women in this delightful mystery are stunning, with figures to die for) approaches him to discover who had left her a note demanding one million dollars!

oing to her house, he discovers the dead body (an occurrence he has an affinity for doing) of a very popular rapper who had been missing for weeks. He finds the man hung from the rafters in the barn with two bullet holes in him! Mort's investigation takes him to Las Vegas, where lovely ladies seem to be everywhere. But he meets one who seems to think he's the one to work with, to find the killer. She's young but smart and smitten with good old Mort.

is the third in the series (following
Gumshoe
and
Gumshoe for Two
). I highly recommend all three books.
