Where There's a Will - Rick Rothermel - Bog

DETECTIVE BEFORE HIS TIME.

In this prequel to the first two C Street Mystery books, L.A. Private Investigator Street's assignment is simple-locate an estranged sister for a midwestern man who wants to grant her a share of their late parents' sizable estate.

But when Street discovers that the sister changed her name almost twenty years ago and became a famous actress, his strait-laced case becomes more arduous. Even more so after a lethal attempt is made on the movie star's life.

Surrounded by an actress with secrets of her own and a man looking more suspicious than at-first glance, Street is stuck in a race against time to solve his investigation before someone gets hurt beyond repair...

Usually more Jim Rockford than Dirty Harry, the C Street Mystery series follows a hardboiled investigator who takes his work more seriously than he takes himself.
