Memphis Ribs by Gerald Duff
It’s May in Memphis, and four bloody murders occur on the eve of the International BBQ Contest and the Cotton Carnival: a conventioneer is stabbed at an ATM machine, a gang leader and his girlfriend are executed, and a wealthy local businessman is killed in his own home while his bodyguard is napping outside the door. It’s up to homicide detective J.W. Ragsdale to solve these seemingly unconnected crimes without scaring away the tourists.
Poor Poor Ophelia by Carolyn Weston
The basis for the hit TV series The Streets of San Francisco A woman’s corpse is found floating in Santa Monica bay with a law firm’s business card, sealed in plastic, strung around her neck. Detective Al Krug and his new, young partner Casey Kellog have to solve the bizarre and gruesome murder… if they don’t kill each other first.
Playing For Keeps by Jane Waterhouse
Young Manhattan professionals with big bank accounts are gentrifying old, waterfront Hoboken for their new homes, forcing the locals out, literally and financially. So when two old women are killed in their apartments, freeing up their real estate, hard-drinking Hoboken detective Hunter Murtaugh, who is being pushed off the police force, refuses to believe the party-line that gang members are to blame. Murtaugh sees a bigger picture. His tenacious investigation could end his career… and his life.
Baroni by Alfred Harris
Rumpled, ploddingly brilliant LAPD homicide detective Lou Baroni is a widower hoping to get promoted to sergeant before his looming retirement. But Baroni’s hopes are constantly thwarted by his venal, unappreciative boss and sabotaged by his ambitious young partner. They want Baroni to spend his final days investigating a recent murder that could lead to the headline-making arrest of an underworld kingpin. The problem is, Baroni is obsessed with the apparent, accidental death of a woman who fell five stories from her apartment window. Baroni is convinced that her henpecked, but likeable husband pushed her…and he’s willing to risk his badge, and his meager pension, to prove it.
The book was adapted into the French film Pile Ou Face, starring Philippe Noiret, often referred to as "the French Walter Matthau," as Baroni.
