Search - 32 Cadillacs (DKA File, Bk 4)

(From back cover)
"Fall down funny ... a plot that never stops for gas ... for originality, ingenuity, and moxie, the inimitable Mr. Gores takes the Caddy." - NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

In Stubenville, Iowa, an old man attempts to get on a department store escalator but takes a death-defining freestyle tumble instead. A few hours later, in the San Francisco Bay area, brand-new Cadillacs begin disappearing. In come the street-smart private eyes of Daniel Kearny Associates, only to find out it won't be so easy to bring in the herd. It seems tag-teaming Gypsies want the Caddies for a funeral that would make both Motown and Elvis proud, not to mention their not-so-surefooted aging King. Countering the Gypsies scam for scam, the DKA's repomen and -women plunge into a dangerous, fuel-exhaustive duel of wits that takes them from Hawaii to Chicago to New York - and leads to the ultimate scam of them all...

"Fast, furious, and funny, Gores' thriller is packed with pure enjoyment from start to finish." - San Diego Union-Tribune

Like Dashiell Hammett, Joe Gores actually worked as a private eye before he became a mystery writer. He is the winner of three Edgar Awards and broad critical acclaim for his Daniel Kearny Associates series and his other novels, teleplays, and screenplays.
