I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting much out of this book, being that my experiences with some of the free books hasn't been great, but I was more than pleasantly surprised by this gem. The title character, Bob Moore, is everything I expect in a PI, crabby, snarky and all too prone to fall back into his vice, drinking too much. He lives and works in a world of "Supers" (Superpowered beings) and had even been married to one.
When one of the greatest of the "Supers," Doc Arts, a major medical hero, insists that some of his patients have gone missing, despite the lack of evidence turned up by the police and the bastion of Supers, he hires a reluctant Moore to look into the case.
What Moore finds is... nothing, at first.
But careless words speak volumes and suddenly, everything goes downhill fast.
I confess to having my suspicions confirmed over the identity of the mysterious villain, but there were plenty of twists to keep me engaged and the ending surprised me with a darker note, but all in all, a terrific novella.
I eagerly look forward to other works by Mr. Andry, and do hope he might write more in this world, one which is well thought-out and carefully crafted.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but this was a nice, tight, well crafted story with an interesting premise. The light attitude makes this most defintely a fun read. Bob Moore is sort of a Dirk Gently meets the Stainless Steel Rat kind of guy. Read this, and then send the author some money! :)

I enjoyed the ending it was not expected at all. I hope Tom Andry writes some more Bob Moore novels.

Good storyline, decent characters. Could use some editing -- bogs down in a few places.

This was a really good and fast read. I liked the characters and the world that Mr. Andry created, and would gladly read more in the same story line. Keep up the good work.

Reminded me of Wild Cards or some of the stories in Masked. Recommend it.
