Nick Sullivan has the perfect sound as a detective. He really made the story very rich with his Bogart swagger voice! The story felt in-between a scooby-doo episode and an old detective mystery. I went along with it saying to myself, "Hey Steph, you got it for free and who can resist that voice?" But I started liking the story more because of the supporting main character, Carrie. She was a hoot! Her character put a lot of life into the story.
The mystery wasn't complicated and had all the good writing necessary for a short but I felt it lacked that certain spark to make me want to be a devoted fan. Yet all-in-all the short did it's job. I'm going to look up more of Bill Pronzini's other works because of this one. It was an entertaining 1 1/2 hours and well worth the time and price of admission!
