All the characters in the Stanley Bentworth Mysteries series are gathered together in a three-book collection, the first three volumes of the series offered at less than the price of a single volume in the series.
On the Street Where You Die introduces Stan and his contingent of characters-Willa, Rodney, Amanda, Sanford-as they set about to shut down a blackmail operation and clear the client of a murder charge they believe and hope is a frame-up. You'll meet Sammy too, the bartender at Oliver's and Bunny, Stan's on-again-off-again girlfriend.
In A Dead Ringer Stan gets shot at and missed only to learn that his double, driving a similar car has been murdered. Which one was the target? When the victim's widow hires Stan to solve the crime, he and his pals find themselves embroiled in the intrigues of corporate hostile takeover, Internet pornography, his hidden and long-forgotten family tree, and buried treasure.
Clueless, the "Pantyhose Slasher" Cases finds Stan working again in the Homicide Unit of the local police department, leading a trio of wet-behind-the-ears homicide cops. Under Stan's guidance, the fledgling team searches for a serial killer who preys on young women, leaving their bodies posed and desecrated in a manner designed to taunt the police and keep the public too scared to go out at night.
