The Squared Circle Murders Marc Hertel

- A cozy mystery masquerading as a hard-boiled crime novel, with a snarky narrator the author finds funny. I'm Kyle Matthews, a homicide detective. A good one. Well, if you ask me, that is. Do not ask my lieutenant. I wanted to be a wrestler when I was young. The only problem is that I was really bad at it. My friends from back then, though, hit it big. All good - except that the whole wrestling circus is rolling into my town. And murder is coming along for a ride. Which I have to investigate. With my friends as suspects. Dagnabbit, I need a candy bar. And a drink. Maybe in that order.(274 pages in paperback)
