Midtown Mayhem

Thriller! Retired baseball pitcher now Private Investigator Vic Landell and his over-the-top redheaded girlfriend Marcia Glenn, find themselves in the middle of two murders. While they are shooting the Redhead’s ABC Special in France, someone is shooting up Midtown Manhattan. Returning to New York, they hook up with an ill-tempered NYPD detective, and our amateur crime-fighters go on the hunt. As always, mixing high-life living with low-life characters, they encounter thugs, greedy bankers, gun peddlers, a “Roast”, serious eating, two princesses, and hired killers. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a Vic Landell mystery without a mob lawyer, a stripper, courtroom shenanigans, Harry Winston, help from his father, and a surprise ending. All seen through the eyes of our sometimes brilliant – sometimes not - private investigator and his much-too-much wingman. It all happens in “Midtown Mayhem, A Vic Landell Mystery.”
