Mink Eyes: 1 (Peter O'Keefe)

October 1986--the tarnished heart of the Greed is Good decade. Private detective Peter OKeefe is a physically scarred and emotionally battered Vietnam Vet. Hired by his childhood best friend ace attorney Mike Harrigan OKeefe investigates what appears to be merely a rinky-dink mink farm Ponzi scheme in the Ozarks. Instead OKeefe finds himself snared in a vicious web of money laundering cocaine smuggling and murder--woven by a mysterious mobster known as Mr. Canada. Also caught in Mr. Canadas web is the exquisite Tag Parker who might be the girl of OKeefes dreams--or his nightmares.Noir meets Arthurian romance as a modern knight errant (both on an errand and in err) rides forth to rescue a beautiful queen beset by dragons--and to save himself in the quest.
