Description: "In Dying in the Post-War World, Heller returns from combat to find his marriage a shambles and himself square in the middle of the notorious Lipstick Killer case of 1946. Kisses of Death follows the PI into the 1950s, when he is hired to guard Marilyn Monroe. The famous starlet's intellectual pursuits eventually lead to Greenwich Village and the grisly murder of an early beatnik. And in Strike Zone, Heller is hired by baseball boss Bill Veeck to investigate the 1961 murder of a famous pitch hitter whose private life will pull Nate into a dangerous new world of little people and big sins."--P. [4] of cover.
