I just finished Bill Pronzini's _Illusions_, in which the Nameless Detective simultaneously investigates two
"locked-room" mysteries, including the death of his former partner. It's a sad, understated story, very well told; strangely, it reminded me of K.C. Constantine's early novels. Not so strangely, it reminded me of Thomas B. Dewey's "Mac" series. It's a quick read and an honest book. Published by Walker.
