Just finished "The Rackham Files", by Dean Ing, which I bought from Baen in 2004. This is a collection of two novellas and a novel featuring Private Eye Harvey Rackham. The first novella is a "high-tech thriller" about a chemical warfare threat; the second pure SF about the hunt for a carnivorous alien along the lines of "Predator". The novel is about the events surrounding and subsequent to a nuclear war, and Rackham's methods of surviving it.
Very enjoyable.
