WORKING STIFF is a razor-edged murder mystery set in 1970s New York that strips the genre to the bone - then feeds it something greasy at 2 a.m. Following his divorce and his resignation from the police force, ex-cop Frank Leland scrapes by as a private investigator, photographing cheating partners and earning just enough to cover the bills for his run-down bedsit. Then a former client offers him big money to hide a body - and Frank is curious enough to take a look. Soon he's toe to toe with an advertising mogul harboring secrets worth killing for. To survive, Frank will have to face not just the killer, but the addiction that's been eating him alive. Perfect for fans of gritty, character-driven mysteries: ✔ A PI who can't mask the addiction that's ruining his life ✔ A city of broken lights, bad cops, and worse secrets ✔ A hardboiled mystery set in the garbage-strewn streets of 1970s NYC ✔ Written by a native New Yorker who lived through it Come back to the New York of blackouts, dirty money, and broken dreams - and meet a detective just trying not to break.
Autorenporträt
BILL KRIEGER was born and raised in New York City - not the fancy parts. He grew up in Bronx tenements, where laundry lines hung between windows and his favorite uncle, a city cabbie, was killed on the job. As a teenager, Bill delivered lunches to Wall Street and paperwork to Midtown law offices. Later, he built a career on Madison Avenue, working as a creative director at top advertising agencies. Eventually, Bill left the suits and slogans behind to write mystery fiction- gritty, character-driven stories rooted in the city that raised him. He currently lives with his wife, Arlene, in Northern Virginia -where he's surrounded by books on homicide investigation, literary noir, and the weirdest corners of human behavior.
