The Shortcut Man by P. G. Sturges
The Shortcut Man by P. G. Sturges, Noirish, fiction, 209 pages.
Dick Henry, the shortcut man of the title, is willing to get his clients what they need without taking the long, complicated, legal way around things. Whether his clients need an obstinate tenant evicted, money recovered from a scam artist or a philandering spouse uncovered, he can do it for a price. A good solid read for fans of anti-heros and noir. There is a follow-up novel due out in January, so that's good.
