Looking for two mystery books / writers? Please help!?
I read a detective novel in the 90s but I do not remember much other than the dust jacket hardcover aw a man's upper body / tattoo dragon extravagant. PI which was the main character has a tattoo, was highly skilled in martial arts and all the weapons (including handguns), adopted and Popular Asian culture and drives a sports car. The other book was a non-traditional detective who was a redneck who liked to drink and was considered despicable by most of his peers. Sorry for the lack of info, but what are the details I remember. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It sounds like your tattoo of a dragon. "The Tattoo Murder Case (Soho Crime)" by Akimitsu Takagi. Http: / / www.amazon.com/Tattoo-Murder-Case-Soho-crime/dp/1569471568/ref=cm_lmf_tit_17 Regarding your second officer, we probably need more than that. Why? The description of a "non-traditional detective who was a redneck who liked to drink and was considered contemptible by the Most of his peers "as part of detective stories and series in several languages. (This is common in the" hard "kind and beyond that.) For example, see the British "Sam Turner" series of books by John Baker. "Sam Turner is a world weary British PI work in York, England. He is a loner, always looking for the woman, but it is now far exceeded its daily redemption. . . . There is also a bit of a loser. In our first met him in 1996, The Poet in the Gutter, it has broken, most recently, off the drink and yet another failed marriage, and without real prospects in the near future for any improvment in his life. It becomes more or less a private detective by http://www.twbooks.co.uk/authors/jbaker1.html http://www.thrillingdetective.com/sam_turner.html Poet accident …." #% 20in% 20the% 20Gutter It really fits your description, but so many others. If you recall description location / country and any other details, it may be useful.
