What a tangled web we weave... 🙄
Okay, the biggest question on my mind is why did you choose to name the main character Rex Harrison? 🤔 I hope that you realize that he was a real person, and a famous actor. Sir Reginald Carey "Rex" Harrison was very popular and he is best known for MY FAIR LADY and the original Dr. Doolittle movie (not the Eddie Murphy rip off). I had to double check to make sure that he never played Mike Hammer in any movies (he didn't). So I still have no idea why you chose the name.
I found this story to be acceptable, but it didn't make me sit back and go "Wow". The ending when Rex and Helen finally get their shit together was very good. 4/5
No real reason for the name. Rex (king) sounds tough and Harrison seemed to go along with it. Maybe it was subliminal 🤷. Sorry it didn’t wow you. All I can do is keep trying. Thanks for commenting.👍
Newer author has started out well. Good writing for this site but far from saleable book quality. Keep practicing. Plot and characters seem reasonably believable.
5-star story.
A bit too much description - after all the Mike Hammer books were very ...condensed.... ;^), but an excellent story nonetheless.
Written in Mickey S style. The name of PI was not my favorite for image of war wary veteran struggling to make a living in post war NYC. Good read. Keeop on writing
The ending was a bit of a fizzle. Agree with comments about there being too much description for a story of this genre. 4*
Enjoyable story with the wording painting some nice imagery along the way and the plot was very good for the theme. The writing was good but there were some little issues along the way that might have been improved with an edit or maybe an editor (like most of, unfortunately!). I liked the ending and give it 4.5 stars, rounded up. Thanks for writing and for participating in the challenge.
