the Sacred Gin Mill Closes. It is from the Scudder series,

guessed Scudder would be right down your alley.
******** One of the things is that I came in fairly late in a
series. A lot of water already under the literary bridge for
Scudder. I think I might have been more appreciate if I had
read some of the previous ones in the series. I want to say
that there wasn't enough on-stage action, but that's not
exactly accurate. I liked Hammett's MALTESE FALCON, and
there's not a whole lotta action in it.
I haven't given up on Block yet. Too many people with a lot
of good comments about him.
