Mystery Private Eye
For nine long days, the mayor and district attorney of Reno, Nevada, have been missing. Vanished without a trace. Their vehicles were found parked side-by-side at Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Did they fly somewhere together? They arenโt on any flight manifest. Did the two of them take off with a big pile of the cityโs money? If so, the city accountants canโt find it. Were they murdered? Thereโs no sign of foul play. Their disappearances have finally made national news. Enter Mortimer Angel, whoโd just quit a thankless job as an IRS agent. Mort is Renoโs newest gumshoe, a private-eye- in-training at his nephewโs detective agency. Just four hours into his new career, Mort finds the mayorโmake that, the mayorโs headโin the trunk of Mortโs ex-wifeโs Mercedes. The news-hungry media speculates: Did Mort kill the mayor? Did Mortโs ex? As events begin to spin out of control, Mort realizes things have been out of control since the night before he started his new career, the night he found the unknown naked blonde in his bed
