Don't know about "greatest," but naming
my favorite recurring noir or detective
protags is as easy as 1, 2, 3:
1) The Continental Op
2) Daniel Kearney Associates (the whole firm;
if I have to pick one person from the group,
Patrick Michael "O.B." O'Bannon)
3) Perry Mason (a guilty pleasure)
My fellow DKA fans will grin to hear that
Joe Gores is writing a new DKA novel,
about the steal-to-order car theft business.
