The third hard-boiled Nebraska crime novel. "Take away the palm tree. Move Raymond Chandler to Nebraska. Stir in humor. And you have a recipe for William J. Reynolds' modern murder mystery." Los Angeles Times The struggling P.I and crime-writer Nebraska, a wannabe "Raymond Chandler of the Corn Belt, " is strapped for money. He's hired by his old high school girlfriend, recently widowed after her husband was gunned down, supposedly after perpetrating a string of bank robberies. The problem is, nobody knows what her dead hubby did with all the loot... and the local cops are pressuring her for the money. She wants Nebraska to find the cash or, better yet, prove that her husband was framed. That's no easy task, and one that could put Nebraska in the ground, too. "An easy to read, sometimes hard to put down tale that takes fans through the seamy side of life in Omaha. Formula private eye fiction with a few midwestern twists." Sioux Falls Argus-Leader "Money Trouble is a joyful mystery, made so by Reynolds' irrepressible sense of humor, " William X. Kienzle, author The Rosary Murders "Nebraska ranks right up there with Robert B. Parker's Spenser and Bill Pronzini's Nameless. Money Trouble provides plenty of excitement and a shocker of an ending." Daily Press (Newport News, Virginia) "Reynolds writes well in the medium-tough vein with nice allusions to other mystery writers. It's refreshing." Publishers Weekly
