Charles Paris, an alcoholic underemployed actor finds himself investigating the disappearance of his former flame‘s lover. The missing man is found dead of natural causes, but Charles‘s snooping has put him in danger. This was nearly a DNF. The 1970‘s setting and the MC‘s constant pursuit of alcoholic oblivion was frustrating. I was interested in the mystery and held on till the bitter end, but I won‘t continue the series. Didn‘t age well⭐️⭐️.
