Gehört zur ReiheMilan Jacovich (2)
Polyester leisure suit, white patent leather shoes, matching white belt--that 1970s fashion statement was once unkindly dubbed the full Cleveland. And no one wears it with more flair and panache than Buddy Bustamente. Buddy (he was medium-sized if you happened to be talking about Cape buffaloes ) is the hulking flunky assigned by mob kingpin Victor Gaimari to shadow Cleveland private eye Milan Jacovich. Milan has been hired to find the perpetrator of a low-level scam who is selling local businessmen ads in a magazine that doesn t exist. But the modest amount of money involved hardly seems worth the string of bodies he soon turns up. And why does it interest a mobster like Victor and his sugar-addict bird dog, Buddy?

Unfortunately, I was probably too young to remember most of the places Roberts lists in this novel. Roads are still around, but I suspect many of the businesses are no more (or they were made up by Roberts and never existed at all).
Milan is a complicated character--imperfect, but trying to better himself. Buddy is thrust upon Milan by the local mob. At first he's just there, then I grew to like him, but he also was a bit of an annoying character with his simpleness, his bottomless-pit stomach, and a few other character traits.
In the end, the perpetrators were a mix of who I thought they were and a surprise that I'd never considered. ( )
