Download the Mystery/Humor, Lester Ludlow, Private Eye by Robert R. Randall. FREE!
Trapped somewhere between adolescence and Hollywood fantasy, he is, nevertheless, a competent, if klutzy, private detective. Obsessed with 1940s style private eyes and ‘blonds with big bazookas,’ ludicrous Lester somehow solves crimes with an efficiency that would have made Sam Spade envious.
Lester is, after all (in his own mind, at least) ‘the Philip Marlowe of Mississippi’ (even if he does still live at home with his mama).
“Lester Ludlow is a big hit with me. I loved his style, his quirkiness, and his weaknesses. I would like to see this book become a series. Lester is a great character, or if not in the works, more mystery books please Mr.Randall!” -READER
