5. Body Copy by Michael Craven

May 2012

Ex-pro surfer turn PI Donald Tremaine delays his vacation to investigate the murder of a high profile creative director at an LA ad agency. Smooth always, funny sometimes. Enjoying it.

In this case, the protagonist doesn't seem to be based off the author...the murder victim does. Craven certainly has some very high profile ad campaigns out there. Some of his work (including a fair number of the "I'm a PC" commercials) can be found at his web site.
