Reseña del libro "Street Smart: The Kelsner Caper (en Inglés)"
With only eight months into his career as a private investigator, Sidney Alfonso Street is thrust into his most important case thus far: find the murderer of his now-deceased partner, Mickey O'Hara. As an ex-police officer, and an ex-Marine with a Purple Heart and a bum knee to prove it, Sid believes he's ready for the challenge. It's 1945 in Long Beach, California, and he's going on a rough rollercoaster ride that will throw him up against organized crime, high society debutantes, and a cast of characters who aren't at all what they appear to be.Casey Reilly, Sid's other partner (the live one), will mentor and guide him along the way. But when it's time for the dirty work to be done, Sid Street is the man who must do it.The 1940s of Ross Macdonald and Dashiell Hammett live again, thanks to Sid Street, Private Detective. Sidney Alfonso Street is a combination of tough-guy muscle and a sharp mind, along with a wise-guy attitude that allows him to see the humor in his investigations. Sid and his partner, Casey Reilly, will deal with it all -- blackmail, kidnapping and...murder. But don't ever call him Sidney, he hates that name.Wayne A. Walter's detective-series character, Sid Street, takes us along into mystery and danger, but still makes us laugh.
