Hear the Wind Blow, Dear - Tapa blanda

The second book in the Vic Daniel series. At 6’7¼" in his outside Hawaiian shirt, invisible he isn’t. His part-time assistant is 110% punk and 0% poet. His office is off the sleazy end of Hollywood Boulevard, between a lousy Vietnamese take-out and a vacant lot. But for a soft touch with a sharp wit – no job too small, divorce work undertaken, anything illegal considered – Vic Daniel’s your main man. Vic Daniel becomes involved in a neighbourhood-watch scheme that gets tangled up in a cannabis farm and a shady operation that has something to do with hot gold...
