Temporal Reviews: Dave Brandstetter Mysteries

So I read some cheesy Dave Brandstetter mysteries by the late Joseph Hansen. I read the first three books in the series: Fadeout, Death Claims, and Troublemaker.

These stories were ground breaking for the time, as they were really among the first of their genre (gay mysteries). In all, they're a little dated, but campy fun. I was drawn to them because of the insurance connection (Dave is an insurance adjuster). These books are good, but the period is a little precious. I am secretly looking forward to reading the rest of them.
