In The Sunday Pigeon Murders, Craig Rice introduces one of her most unusual and entertaining detective duos: Bingo Riggs, a fast-talking promoter with a nose for opportunity, and Handsome Kusak, his quiet, tough-as-nails partner. Together, they stumble into murder the way other people stumble into traffic. What starts as a scheme to cash in on the movie-star lookalike business quickly spirals into chaos when one of their clients winds up dead—and more bodies follow. With the police circling and suspects piling up, Bingo and Handsome must use street smarts, charm, and sheer luck to solve a mystery filled with impostors, shady dames, and Hollywood-style deception. Fast, funny, and full of twists, The Sunday Pigeon Murders blends screwball comedy with classic noir, showcasing Craig Rice’s gift for mixing sharp dialogue, offbeat characters, and clever plotting. A must-read for fans of unconventional mysteries.
