The Nights That Tarry, Alone is a compilation of four short mystery stories, with a vintage fifties noir flair, all based on the hard-boiled life of detective Angel Manelli, mostly set in the beautiful desert playground of Palm Springs, California. He's a world-weary, street-smart private eye, former cop with LAPD and detective with the Palm Springs Police. This first-generation Italian American army veteran doesn't care much for people's pathetic excuses for breaking the law. His unspoken heart's desire is to be reinstated "on the job" as a cop again. Guilt-ridden shame, surreptitious regret, unmitigated revenge, redemption, and justice--all converge in the end. Through many twists, misdirections, and secrets revealed, Angel embarks on a journey for the truth, which ultimately leads to four guilty parties for various crimes. It's a bountiful harvest of justice served!
