Publisher's Synopsis
In the heart of Buffalo's Allentown, inconspicuously watching in alleys, behind keyholes, and in the sultry shadows atop a bar stool lurks a gumshoe hot on a case. Meet Jake Knight, a hard-boiled, trench coat-wearing, cigar-smoking, private eye that could have walked straight out of central casting. Join him as he and his trusty dog Duke sprightly traverse the city's endless maze of crooks, politicians, and men who blow bubbles, in search of justice and money to pay the rent. Rather than overhearing his inner monologue, we're invited to study the depths of his daily observations through the pages of diary entries he posts every night after last call. Insightful, philosophical, and even poetic at times, Jake Knight's story will be a boffo, instant classic, according to his mother.
