A Fatal Glass of Beer
A Fiction, Historical, Mystery book. Perhaps my favorite Tony Peters novel. Hilarious.
What an amazing--and not famous enough by half--mystery writer Stuart M. Kaminsky is! By last count, he has been doing excellent work in three very different series: his sad and pungent books about Russian detective Porfiry Petrovich (Blood and Rubles, etc.); his gritty, poignant stories about aging Chicago cop Abe Lieberman (starting with Lieberman's Day); and his richly-detailed series about vintage Hollywood private eye Toby Peters. This 20th installment is one of the best, as Peters is hired by W. C. Fields to find the blackguard who is looting all of the comedian's secret bank accounts, carefully hidden under such fake names as Cormorant Beecham and Quigley E. Sneersight. Other Peters period adventures in paperback: Dancing in the Dark, He Done Her Wrong, Think Fast, Mr. Peters.

More About A Fatal Glass of Beer
Perhaps my favorite Tony Peters novel. Hilarious. A fun romp through the 40s and the American midwest. I chose it for the WC Fields character and was very glad I did this as an audiobook. The reader did an impeccable job of getting the voice of Fields without going over the top. A fun caper, sharp wit, and plenty of surprises. Good writing, a little strange. It will be awhile until I read another of this series.
