My Gun Sleeps Alone A Lucas Helath Story

Casefile #2 - November 1951Seedy shamus Lucas Helath is laying low in Orange County until the LAPD gets bored of busting his chops. Although officially cleared of any involvement in a string of recent murders those boys in Homicide really know how to hold a grudge. All he has to do is kick back and relax in the company of some low-rent showgirls - while ignoring a wise-cracking imp who's almost certainly a figment of his imagination. Almost. But Astor & Associates, Private Detectives, have a new case; Schumann the tailor has been kidnapped and his daughter is willing to pay big bucks if Lucas will handle the exchange. So it's back to the city where night never ends, where Haitian spirits haunt his waking dreams and the dead don't weep for the living.To rescue Papa Schumann Helath will have to stay one step ahead of the mob, the police, and the lure of easy money. All without dying, going crazy, or losing his soul in the process. So sometimes all you can do is roll the dice - and hope.
