The Sword-Edged Blonde

It should have been a case like any other: a missing princess, a king willing to pay in gold for her return. But before he realizes it, private investigator Eddie LaCrosse, a slightly shopworn sword jockey with a talent for discretion and detection, is swept up in a web of mystery and deceit involving a brutally murdered royal heir, a queen accused of an unspeakable crime, and the tragic past he thought he'd left behind.©2007 Alex Bledsoe (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Stylish and self-assured: Raymond Chandler meets Raymond E. Feist." (Publishers Weekly)
"Fans of Glen Cook's Garrett novels or hard-boiled detective fiction will appreciate this well-crafted gem of a tale." (Library Journal)

Fun little noire book

It felt like a 1920s noire mystery updated to a fantasy novel. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and finished in one day.

Masterful

Such a well rounded story. Basically from start to finish this story answers all the questions one could ask of life and the universe. Love & loss, victory & defeat, honor & betrayal. Reminiscent of age old fables, if you are wise there are layers of lifes lessons and parables within this wonderful story. Loved it

You want to hear this one...

A surprisingly great tale. Bledsoe delivers an intricate and highly entertaining story. Well written and very well read by the narrator!

absolutely well written and performed .

I loved the story. I enjoyed the pace at which the author kept it moving.

Twisted in a good way.

Delightful fantasy mix of crime,, detection , spies, kidnapping, love and hate, all twisted together. Oh,, and don't forget the goddess, and the horses.
