Part of Stuart Kaminsky's beloved Toby Peters Mystery series, High Midnight is a hard-boiled detective novel set against the golden glamour of 1940s Hollywood. The story follows Toby Peters, a down-at-heel private eye whose cases inevitably entangle him with the era's most iconic celebrities — this time, cowboy star Gary Cooper finds himself in the crosshairs of a dangerous blackmail scheme. Kaminsky masterfully blends authentic period atmosphere with wry, wisecracking wit, delivering a narrative that crackles with the energy of classic noir fiction. The series draws on Kaminsky's deep knowledge of Hollywood history, weaving real figures into tightly plotted mysteries that are as entertaining as they are evocative. High Midnight stands as a testament to the author's skill in crafting sharp, compulsively readable crime fiction rooted in a richly imagined past.
