Book Cover & Preview Text
Miriam looked up, "That is all of the confusing information written on this memo. So now, Clever One, we certainly are interested in hearing exactly what you believe Huck Tucci's motives were when he killed his parents, also who wore the pink, lace nightgown, and why Lt. Robert Morely decided to leave town so suddenly." "I wish I knew all of the answers to these questions, Miriam, but there were so many inconsistencies involved, that the homicide squad felt that they had struck out again. Lieutenant Morely might have known some of these answers, but he did not stay around long enough to inform us. Without his testimony, the Chief was compelled to call these combined crimes, 'an uncontrollable family altercation, that ended in multiple homicides.'" "Well, Detective McGinty, this is your opportunity to explain your theories, using your alleged logical, unimaginative rehashing of this evidence, in the manner that you claim is similar to the preparation of the plots that we novel writers generate. "While you are explaining all of your wonderful ideas and logical thoughts, I will write them down and eventually I will edit them. Perhaps then, we will have a basis for another best selling novel. Of course, our novel will need my literary expertise, but I will give you credit for collaborating," Miriam facetiously conceded. "Thanks a lot, Miriam, you really are generous. Instead of this collaboration, suppose I allow you to comprise this story yourself, at your home, on your own time. You can write another goofy novel, and I will not have to bother you with any of my so-called illogical ideas." "Oh, you are not getting off that easy, Detective McGinty. It is your story and I am sure that Ben and I will be interested in knowing how your master-mind operates in the unimaginative." "I must admit that my thoughts concerning this incident might sound a little illogical at first, especially to a certain stenographer who can not properly evaluate pertinent facts, but here is what I think took place."

About the Book
The pertinent details of a variety of intricate cases are provided by a private detective, who presents these intriguing incidents for his secretary and accountant's consideration. This simultaneously permits his office employees to further defer or neglect their regular office duties. Despite the fact that they occasionally offend their boss, the private detective knows that his employees are not only affectionately mischievous, but also loyal, enthusiastically encouraging devotees, and the most ardent admirers of his unrelenting tenacity to seek amicable solutions to his troublesome and sordid cases. They, in turn, know that his reprimands are not as serious as his insinuations indicate, because they are aware that their detective hero also has an affectionate, patronizing devotion to them, which he constantly tries to disguise.
