Glen Cook's popular Garrett, P.I., series has been hailed as "fantasy noir at its best" (Library Journal). Its hard-boiled hero, Garrett, is a private investigator in TunFaire-a city of beautiful women, powerful sorcerers, and dangerous magic.... Garrett's having a pretty good morning until he finds a strange child named Penny Dreadful poking around his house. Before he can figure out what the mysterious urchin wants, he's hired to investigate how an old underworld boss ended up in a coma-leaving his gorgeous, criminally insane daughter to run the family business. The ravishing beauty has some lascivious designs on Garrett-and some deadly ones too. But she's not the only one dreaming up ways to finish off the endangered private eye, who has to figure out why everyone is suddenly after him....Cook, Glen is the author of 'Whispering Nickel Idols', published 2005 under ISBN 9780451459749 and ISBN 0451459741.
