Yes indeed. I am generally fond of Gardner's work, but
especially like the A.A. Fair books, which deserve to be
better known. I think they contain one of the truer pictures
of "what being a private investigator is really like", with
the general grubbiness, the constant scraping around for a
client, etc. Highly recommended.
