Red Herrings Can't Swim

Nod Blake Mysteries, Book 2

By: Doug Lamoreux

Narrated by: Doug Greene

A drowned man. A sinister circus. And murder...murder...murder.

Nod Blake, the wisecracking private eye, is back. He's an aging throwback to a bygone era of detecting on the mean streets; a dinosaur of a private eye who never got the memo that he was extinct.

And thanks to his over-eager secretary, he's been dumped in the midst of a murder most foul.

From beneath the graves, victims are begging Blake to solve their murders. In the real world, he's flummoxed by vandals, threats to his life, wildly raucous suspects, and a homicide detective happy to pin killings on him.

Red Herrings Can't Swim is a classic hard-boiled murder mystery set in 1979 Chicago and can be listened as a standalone.

Wynken, Blynken, and Blake!

Not since Harry Dresden have enjoyed supernatural detective stories this much! Nod Blake is written with such a sharply dry sense of humor I find myself busting out with laughter. Not a issue normally, but I like to listen to audible at work. People stare. Tons of funny wrapped around a really good mystery make for a super fun listen.
