Description:
<p><i>All Shook Up</i> is a fast-paced, hard-edged, energetic page-turner featuring Eddie Dancer — Canada’s newest and toughest private eye who might have learned his craft at school with Robert B. Parker’s Spenser, Robert Crais’ Elvis Cole, or Lawrence Sanders’ Archy McNally.</p>
<p>Two years as a city cop have convinced Eddie he’s better off working for himself. When he’s hired to track down a tough, professional bank robber, Eddie has no idea he’s about to pry the lid off a very nasty cans of worms — worms who will stop at nothing to put him in the ground. When he runs up against a pair of disgraced ex-bikers, he uncovers a macabre connection between the ex-bikers and the “fate worse than death” that has befallen many of the city’s hookers — a fate that leaves them, irreversibly, in a vegetative state.</p>
<p>Eddie wonders if he has bitten off more than he can chew, but with the help of his friend Danny “Many Guns,” Eddie uncovers evidence of a major conspiracy stretching from the city’s back streets and tattoo parlours to the very top of the prison system food chain.</p>
<p>Will Danny save his friend and partner from the “fate worse than death,” or will the bad guys finally get their revenge on the man who’s exposed them? <i>All Shook Up</i> is the first in the Eddie Dancer series — a fast read that mixes humour with a memorable plot, an impressive array of characters, and enough twists to keep pages turning to the very end.</p>
