Synopsis
This is the 29th mystery concerning the Detective without a Name (well, actually he has a first name now--it's Bill) and his San Francisco agency, now staffed with two partners, Jake Runyon and Tamara Corbin. Staking out a deadbeat dad, Tamara witnesses evidence of another crime, and becomes the victim of one herself. Meanwhile, Jake tracks down two gay-bashers responsible for an attack on the lover of Jake's estranged son, and Nameless deals with a dying pulp writer's curious and difficult legacy.

Industry Reviews
"For fans of this longest of long-distance runners...the best news is that the close of his 29th leaves Nameless nowhere near breathless."
Publishers Weekly (02/01/2005)

"[S]hows Pronzini at the top of his form....Pronzini handles the two main story lines and multiple, shifting points of view with aplomb while unsentimentally exploring violence against gays with understatement, righteous indignation and genuine pathos." (starred review)
Publishers Weekly (02/21/2005)

"Pronzini constructs his sturdy plot with top-quality materials, including spit-polished dialogue and loathsome villains....And Bill is still a terrific hero."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (03/27/2005)

"Another excellent entry in an outstanding series."
Booklist (02/01/2005)
