The Complete Cases of The Dean, Volume 2
Overview
The Dean returns-smarter, slipperier, and twice as charming.
Part-time detective and consummate con man Dean Wardlow Rock makes his living as a faux fortune teller-his business card boldly promising pedomancy: "Fortunes Devined from the Soles of Your Feet." The fortune-teller act is a sales trick; the eccentric, archaic-word-dropping "living encyclopedia" is a mask. Underneath it all is a man who reads people as easily as he reads soles, using guile, showmanship, and a keen reporter's instinct to unmask thieves, blackmailers, jilted lovers-and killers.
In The Complete Cases of The Dean, Volume 2, Merle Constiner's slyest sleuth returns in another set of twisty, hard-boiled yarns from the pages of Dime Detective. These stories pair pulp-era snap with crafty con-man brilliance: clever plots, sharp dialogue, and the kind of cunning that only a professional trickster can bring to justice.
He'll tell your fortune. He'll solve your murder. Just don't believe everything he says.
