Private Eyes
Private Eyes is the complete map to what Raymond Bhandler called "the mean streets," the exciting world of the fictional private eye. It is intended to entertain current PI fans and to make new ones.
It's All One Case
This is a prose series of unpublished interviews with, and a visual retrospective of, the seminal mid- to late-20th century literary crime writer. In 1976, critic Paul Nelson spent several weeks interviewing legendary detective writer Ross Macdonald, who elevated the form to a new literary level. “We talked about everything imaginable,” Nelson wrote―including Macdonald’s often meager beginnings; his dual citizenship; writers, painters, music, and movies he admired; The Great Gatsby, his favorite book; how he used symbolism to change detective writing; and more. This book, published in a handsome, oversized format, collects these unpublished interviews and is a visual history of Macdonald’s professional career. It is illustrated with rare and select items from one of the world’s largest private archives of Macdonald ephemera; reproduces, in full color, the covers of the various editions of Macdonald’s more than two dozen books; collects facsimile reproductions of select pages from his manuscripts, as well as magazine spreads; and presents rare photos, many never before seen.
Cocaine and Blue Eyes
Michael Brennan, private eye, follows a trail in search of the girlfriend of a dead cocaine dealer that leads him to high society and surprises along the way.

Meanwhile There Are Letters
*2016 Edgar Award Finalist* *2016 Anthony Award Finalist* *2016 Macavity Award Finalist* In 1970, Ross Macdonald wrote a letter to Eudora Welty, beginning a thirteen-year correspondence between fellow writers and kindred spirits. Though separated by background, geography, genre, and his marriage, the two authors shared their lives in witty, wry, tender, and at times profoundly romantic letters, each drawing on the other for inspiration, comfort, and strength. They brought their literary talents to bear on a wide range of topics, discussing each others' publications, the process of translating life into fiction, the nature of the writer’s block each encountered, books they were reading, and...
The Big Hurt
Julie Beaumont is fifteen ... and missing. So when Michael Brennen, San Francisco pirvate eye, is hired to locate her, he thinks she's another runaway. Or it's a routine child support case. But then checks bounce, dead bodies accrue, philanthropists toss money around, high-price call girls flash winning smiles, and a US Senator throws herself into the fray, well, there's more trouble and intrigue than Brennen would have ever suspected. Let's not forget the kidnappings, the adultery, the back-room politics, and at least two incredibly screwed-up families. All those secrets must be revealed. From the author of COCAINE & BLUE EYES. MURDER IN WAIKIKI, JOHNNY CASINO, THE BLONDE ASSASSIN, and others. Cover photograph by Katherine Zackel.
