Download or read book The Private Eye written by Bran Nicol and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Philip Marlowe and Sam Spade to Jake Gittes, private eyes have made for some of the most memorable characters in cinema. We often view these detectives as lone wolves who confront and try to make sense of a violent and chaotic modern world. Bran Nicol challenges this stereotype in The Private Eye and offers a fresh take on this iconic character and the film noir genre. Nicol traces the history of private eye movies from the influential film noirs of the 1940s to 1970s neonoir cinema, whose slow and brilliant decline gave way to the fading of detectives into movie mythology today. Analyzing a number of classic films—including The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, Chinatown, and The Long Goodbye—he reveals that while these movies are ostensibly thrillers, they are actually occupied by issues of work and love. The private eye is not a romantic hero, Nicol argues, but a figure who investigates the concealments of others at the expense of his own private life. Combining a lucid introduction to an underexplored tradition in movie history with a new approach to the detective in film, this book casts new light on the private worlds of the private eye.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A fun and quirky adventure. Chris Wong Sick Hong is an author to watch!" - Patricia Briggs Does saving the world count if you do it out of spite? They call me a dick because I am one: Dick Richards, Private Eye. Tour guides and politicians up for reelection crow about how Tipton’s “majestic skyscrapers paint a living mosaic of light against the edges of space,” blissfully ignorant of the Under seeping through society’s cracks like fluorescent mold. Elves, dwarves, superheroes...everyone’s got secrets and what’s a little blackmail among associates? That’s just life. And while there isn’t enough cash in the universe to pay for knight-in-shining-armor suicide missions, there are lines. Tap dance across those—firebomb my apartment and kill my friends—and now it’s personal. Some compare me to Harry Harrison’s Stainless Steel Rat or Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden. An AI thinks I’m like Tom Rob Smith’s Child 44. One Tom, one Dick, two-and-a-half Harrys. The after-school special damn near writes itself. But do you really need to be told what to think? Buy or don't. I don't have time to babysit. ____________________________________________________________ Join Dick Richards on his next adventure! The 2nd part of the series, Dick Richards: Planeswalker is now available as an ebook. Readers' reviews “Chris Wong Sick Hong knows his craft well and strikes a daring pose with DICK RICHARDS, PRIVATE EYE. Entertaining, informed and informing, humor and action driven, this Noir Cyberpunk adventure is sure to thrill and entertain. With tinges of Harrison’s Stainless Steel Rat and Gibson’s Burning Chrome, DICK RICHARDS forges a unique alloy of fantasy, magic, and science into an engaging and entertaining story.” - Kevin Noel Olson, author of TOCSIN CODEX "This is such a fun, quirky book. So many authors do the noir style badly, but Chris absolutely nails it. In a futuristic world that's like Blade Runner with elves, a jaded private detective gets drawn into a case that becomes increasingly dangerous...and increasingly personal." - 5 star review on Goodreads "I loved this book from start to finish. The world is engaging, the characters are colorful and interesting. The plot is engaging and dynamic. If you are a fan of the sci-fi genre, this is a great book to read." - 5 star review on Amazon "I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fresh take on the traditional detective/mystery story." - 4 star review on Amazon

While visiting her brother for the first time in years, Jane's fascinated by a story of mistaken identity: On three occasions, someone has accused him of swindling them on eBay, only to realize he's not the right guy. Even though he doesn't see the point, she wants to look into it. Then back at home one of her parents' friends is attacked, leading Jane to vow to get to the bottom of things. Out of nowhere, Jane suddenly has two cases, both edging a little too close to her loved ones for comfort, because one thing's for sure---whenever family gets wrapped up in your personal business, it's bound to be some scary stuff.
