Li'l IV Excerpt

[David Kipen]

Puts me in mind of Roger Simon's hippie noir private eye Moses Wine, whose first and probably best appearance, The Big Fix, became an unjustly forgotten Richard Dreyfuss vehicle...


All finest,

David Kipen

EXCERPT: "Doc had outrun souped-up Rollses full of indignant smack dealers on the Pasadena Freeway, doing a hundred in the fog and trying to steer through all those crudely engineered curves, he'd walked up back alleys east of the L.A. River with nothing but a borrowed 'fro pick in his baggies for protection, been in and out of the Hall of Justice while holding a small fortune in Vietnamese weed, and these days had nearly convinced himself all that reckless era was over with, but now he was beginning to feel deeply nervous again."
