Ghost of Jeff Davis: A Fat Bennie Mystery

Rayner's work has been compared to some of America's finest mystery writers, including Goodis and Thompson. His dose of hardnosed Chicago toughness and reverence for all things freaky create a curious and genre-defining series that just begs to be read. Fat Bennie O?Day, the original Chicago surfing PI is back with two new mysteries? The Ghost of Jeff Davis:The lost gold of the Confederacy brings Bennie, the KKK, minority action groups, mushy gulf coast surf, and angry reptiles together for a big south side helping of noir whodunit. The Wreck of the Jennie B:Bennie drops in and finds himself the best friend of big oil, a smarmy North Shore politician, and a WW II Lake Michigan shipwreck that hides a deadly secret.Rayner, Ben is the author of 'Ghost of Jeff Davis: A Fat Bennie Mystery', published 2007 under ISBN 9780595410750 and ISBN 0595410758.
