"But Gores has never been serving up the PI fantasy. He's
been applying the police procedural's technical verity to
stories about private detectives rather than police
detectives. Indeed, Gores himself refers to the DKA series as
"procedurals" rather than as "private eye novels."
I read a very positive review of his latest DKA book
yesterday. It even brings back some of the gypsies from 32
Caddilacs. I don't know how Gores does it, but even at their
most absurd, his books still seem completely within the real
world.
