The White Jamaican

Private-Eye Frank Quick is only trying to locate a missing husband, but instead he finds himself caught in an underworld crossfire, tangled in a web of lies, and torn between two beautiful sisters.With a generous nod to Ross Macdonald and his unforgettable detective, Lew Archer, The White Jamaican takes the reader along on private detective Frank Quick's search for a missing man. Fast-paced and violent, Chris Helvey's latest novel features a blonde who keeps changing her story, a man who has inexplicably vanished, and enough hoodlums, gunsels, and gangsters to fill a dozen movie screens. Set in big city back alleys, the sunshine of Jamaica, and the American desert southwest, The White Jamaican is the action-packed mystery of the year.
