The Moonlight Falcon

Headcase Dick Moonlight PI finds himself in a world of hurt and deception when he agrees to take on a job for the Blaze Construction Company. It seems its portly, "midget" owner, Greg Blaze, believes his workers are stealing tools from him and he needs Moonlight to gather the proof.

But the more Moonlight digs into the case, the more insidious things become, including a mysterious ancient, Egyptian falcon statuette made of pure obsidian believed to be priceless that the crooked construction owner has allegedly stolen.

Shades of The Maltese Falcon? Maybe. But one thing is for sure: this pure hard-boiled thrilling madness from New York Times and USA Today bestselling Thriller and Shamus Awards-winning author Vincent Zandri.
