More DescriptionThe sixth action-packed adventure for Steve Bentley, the ex-spy turned accountant and freelance trouble-shooter She Died The Way She Lived...in the Heat of Passion"I'm Bentley, Steve Bentley. You might ask what a C.P.A. is doing assisting the D.C. police... and chasing a murderer and racketeers. Well. it all had to do with the 'Good Neighbor' policy.' I happened to become involved when my oh-so-friendly neighbor in a black negligee invited me over for a nightcap. Only before I could change into something a little more comfortable, some other Romeo stole the scene -- and some incriminating evidence. He left my neighbor with a stocking around her neck..."There just aren't enough hard-drinkin', two-fisted, pistol-packin' playboy accountants who make like P.I.s, if you ask me." The Thrilling Detective""Steve Bentley [is] series fiction's toughest tax accountant." Bill Pronzini & Marcia Muller, 1001 Midnights, The Afficionado's Guide to Detective Fiction"A Washington-based CPA, Bentley fits the stereotype of a private eye better than an accountant. He's is hard-hitting, adventurous and attractive to women. The most interesting novel, from an historical point of view, is Angel Eyes , where the McGuffin is a tape recording that can destroy a politician's career." William DeAndrea, Encyclopedia Mysteriosa"As 'Robert Dietrich,' E. Howard Hunt wrote ten novels starring Steve Bentley, a Washington D.C. accountant who solves murders in private-eye style. The first thing to know about Bentley is that he isn't just a paper-pushing CPA. He's a Korean War veteran who was employed at one time by the U.S. Treasury Department. If you love vintage crime-fiction you should enjoy this tale." The Paperback Warrior
