Zigzag: A Nameless Detective Collection (Nameless Detective Novels)

Zigzag: A Nameless Detective Collection (Nameless Detective Novels) by Pronzini, Bill. Hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780765381033.

Two novellas and two short stories featuring Mystery Writers of America Grandmaster Bill Pronzinis iconic Nameless Detective! Zigzag is an original novella, in which a safe and simple accident investigation becomes the unraveling of a twisted murder scheme. Grapplin, which first appeared in Ellery Queens Mystery Magazine, deals with the kind of missing person case that can end in only one of two ways, closure or heartbreak. In the second short, Nightscape, readers discover how, indeed, one thing just leads to another (First published in Ellery Queens Mystery Magazine as The Winning Ticket). The final work, Revenant, is another original novella and entangles Nameless in a weird crime with fearful occult overtones. "Proficient." - Kirkus Reviews
