Title: You won't find this on my "Regional Book" shelf
Product review: Here's what the jacket says: "Dan Fortune, the one-armed private detective of the Edgar Allan Poe Award-winning Michael Collins novels ... returns with his most provocative, brilliantly realized adventure to date." Well, I don't know about that. This was the first (and it will be the last) Dan Fortune novel I've read. I don't know how Dan lost his arm - unlike many series, remedial background information is not provided. The current adventure involves progeny of the VietNam Conflict.I ordered this book because I thought it might be about Minnesota. Who knew that the Minnesota Strip is in New York City?! And probably not a destination for most tourists. "Sudden death was as ordinary on the Minnesota Strip as whisky and heroin and pimps' Cadillacs." It's a grim place and a grim book.Does anyone out there know how this area of NYC got its name?
