Respectable debut effort.,

This review is from: THE NEBRASKA QUOTIENT (Paperback)
The Nebraska Quotient by William J. Reynolds is a respectable example of latter day hardboiled crime writing. The author touches all the requisite bases and does so with humor and frequent nods to well known pioneers of the hardboiled genre.
Narration is provided by an Omaha based PI whose legal name, ironically enough, is Nebraska. Just like his creator, Nebraska is writing his first novel, a detective story similar to this one. The narrative unfolds in 1980s Omaha and revolves around Nebraska's efforts to locate a missing small time pornographer after being hired by the pornographer's femme fatale sister. Written with wit and intelligence, The Nebraska Quotient qualifies as a pretty good debut detective novel. |
