The Ghost, the Girl, and the Gun
Are you ready for trenchcoats and treachery?
Where a five o’clock shadow is just part of the uniform?
Where a man’s wit is his weapon of choice, but his revolver’s always nearby?
Where it’s bourbon for breakfast, knuckle sandwiches for lunch, and dangerous dames for dinner?
Are you ready to meet The Ghost?
Casper O’Neal is a private investigator. He’s good at his job: his clients respect him, his targets fear him, and nobody particularly likes him. When he wakes up in his office with a throbbing headache, a smoking gun in his hand, and a dead body on the floor, Casper realizes he’s about to represent his toughest client: himself.
