The Hard Way: Book 3 of the Gotcha Series Wayne Hancock 1st edition

The Hard Way shows the way out of the Hard-Boiled Detective genre as Hancock writes solidly in the tradition of the European masters.

Wayne Hancock's, The Hard Way, is unlike what many would expect of an American detective/crime novel. In fact, Hancock has crossed the Atlantic to write this novel in the mode of the great European masters. Like Sherlock Holmes, the original model for the "armchair detective," the criminal organization being subjected to investigation in the book is being investigated with cool logic by a diverse group of citizens who had once gotten together to solve the infamous murder of Margaret Wilson in 1936, more than a year before.
