Here are my thoughts after perusing the initial chapters of the project. (revealed at the bottom):
Its 1:33 am and a sexy blonde pops into Ian’s office. Is she for real?
If you were in Ian’s shoes, would you reach for your
When a woman like this
hands over this:
Not just to anybody, but to a man with credentials like this:

Chapter 1
There’s a meeting here
Ian has a good buddy in Lou Ceasare, who runs Bottom of the Sea Strip Club and Lounge. This could have been a sculpture of one of his LIVE NUDES as advertised by his neon sign.
*
Chapter 2.
They share the trait of having yellow color, but all is not sunny where the woman and car are.
*
Chapter 3
The cop is always the P.I.’s rock.
*
Chapter 4
Can you imagine life interrupted even before a step into the real domain of the adult world? What can be so crucial to a foe that only silence can amend a violation?
*
Ch. 5
The omniscient color foretells rolling events. What can it be? Discover in the next chapter!
*
Ch. 6
Meanwhile this plagues us.
*
Ch. 7
You’re invited to the block party.
You know its serious when you see
There was an explosion. Was anybody injured or killed?
Ian can’t die. The book is all about him. 😎
Its all in a day’s work for super sleuth Ian.🥸

Ch. 8
Don’t crumple the bag. You don’t know what’s inside.
*
Ch. 9
Black clothing is ALWAYS in fashion.
What’s inside?
*
Ch. 10
I like my coffee black. How about you?
This is around one third of the book.

All these are not my writings, but it belongs to them. That is the project. Its interesting ……. click there to see yourself.
There’s foreshadowing, which any good reader-sleuth would love. Loose ends are tied up. Chapters end in cliff hangers. You’ll never put the book down.
Rating: ***** out of 5 stars.

Thank you, Cai
I have done one or two reviews of the writings of others. always found it difficult as I would be concerned with ‘doing it correctly’.
If I had only read this, your review of the Case of the Missing Starr, my efforts would have quite different. Hint: it would have been fun and enjoyable, not a chore to endure.
This was fun to read and I’m glad you enjoyed the story.
(loved the suggested sculpture)
and…and! yours is the first Review I’ve gotten for any of my efforts to write a novel. so, at the risk of repeating myownself thank you.
*a compliment on something creative and unexpected in a most intriguing way

I’ve still a long way more to go. I’ve put on my thinking cap to consider changing the “literary device”. If there is something new to see, the link will be posted in the next TToT.
