Title: One of the Best Books You Haven't Heard About
Review: This cross genre by Heywood Steele may be one of the funniest detective novels I've ever read. The premise, a detective hired to locate the soul of a burnt out rock singer, is handled in a very mature and different way. The author takes a theme as old as the history of literature and puts a spin on it that has never (to my knowledge) been done before. His narrative style flows so beautifully that you'll finish the book after a few short hours and ask for another like it. What happens when you sell your soul? What happens if you want it back? Is there life after death? Can disillusioned people learn to love again, even at the twilight of their lives? Can an alcoholic cab driving private detective beat the devil at his own game? The answers are all here. The book was released a year ago with minimal fanfare, but don't mistake that for a lack of quality. This book is one of my favorites.
