"Finished Frisco Blues by Gordon DeMarco last night. This is a hardboiled baseball novel that I mentioned during the recent discussion. It's set in 1947 and Demarco tries too hard to capture the PI of that day. I wouldn't hunt it down."

That was my take on DeMarco's other historic PI novel October Heat, too, trying way too hard to establish the period.
