The Goulden Fleece
(1979)(The first book in the Harry Gould Thriller series)
A novel by Raymond Obstfeld
"A talent worth investigating. There's a satiric bite to his work." - Ross MacDonald
Harry Gould moved to L.A. to escape several impatient (and heavily armed) New York City creditors.
Diminutive Harry then finds himself a big job guarding a wealthy L.A. businessman. Fine. Until he discovers that the local hit-men are more interested in him than his boss. The FBI also seem to have his number...and the Los Angeles Police Force...and a number of very beautiful young women.
Something is definitely up and it looks as if it's going to take every bit of Harry's finely-honed criminal sensibility to come out in one piece. He may even get a chance at discovering who is setting him up...and why.
Raymond Obstfeld is a novelist, poet and screenwriter. With more than twenty-five published novels in the mystery, suspense and western genres, he has created and written three successful series as well as having written for two other series.
