(09) The Voodoo Murders

Spoiler:
"The hand was quicker than the private eye. Steel gleamed in his fingers magically and a lightning bolt left his brown hands. It flashed across twenty feet and pinned my sleeve to the wall, knocking the gun out of my hand."
--Ed Noon, Private Eye

A voodoo cult masterminded by the fantastic Count Calypso is trying to take over the world and Ed Noon is the only private eye between Manhattan and Port-au-Prince who can stop him.

Ed Noon's Calypso caper: a voodoo cult masterminded by the fantastic Count Calypso trying to take over the world, and Noon is catapulted into the weirdest case of his career. The savage deep-freeze murder of a close friend turns the case personal, and makes it a duel to the death with the Count. This one starts with a threat in Manhattan and ends with human sacrifice in Port-au-Prince. This story also features the first appearance of would-be actress Peg Temple.


(11) The Living Bomb

amazon.co.uk | amazon.com | amazon.ca

Spoiler:
"Great life. Guns, girls and trouble. All kinds of trouble. From getting hit on the
head to being kidnapped in broad daylight."--Ed Noon, Private Eye

Ed Noon's career takes a sharp turn when he is hired by the President of the United States to find America's number one nuclear scientist, who has mysteriously disappeared, and with him, the designs for America's most powerful nuclear super-weapon.

Homer Conroy, America's number one nuclear scientist, mysteriously disappears, and with him the secret formula for the biggest bomb, the Cobalt. A concerned President assigns Noon to find Conroy, and once more Noon is thrust among a cast of international terrorists and troublemakers: a giant named Mr. Colombo, a silky assassin named X. X. St. John, a sex queen scientist, Ilona Dorn. The case takes Non from the Potomac to the U.N. Building. Peg Temple, now a movie star, walks back into Noon's life.

I have both of them, purchased (or free?) back in 2013.

HOWEVER, these are wonderfully zany, and I highly recommend them.

THANK YOU!
