The Four Last Things by Timothy Hallinan

4.0

Simeon Grist, a detective by default, is hired to follow Sally Oldfield. When she ends up tortured and murdered, and the person who hired him isn't the person who hired him, Grist decides to investigate on his own. Dark enough in places to make you squirm, and laugh-out-loud funny in others, this is a rollicking good start to this series.
