Here are five funny, entertaining, delectable mystery stories featuring Peter "Pit Bull" Geller, who may be a bit damaged physically (in an auto accident), but has lost neither his biting wit nor his keen sense of how the upper crust manages their criminal ways. Included are "Pit and the Pendulum", "Pit on the Road to Hell", "A Christmas Pit", "Dog Pit", and "Horse Pit" (winner of the Black Orchid Award from the Nero Wolfe Society and Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine). Great story from a master storyteller!

The MC and plot are interesting and kinda fun. There are some interesting twists in some of the stories. It did take a bit of effort to believe that a heavy alcoholic, depressed, claustrophopic, OCD, possible PTSD, severe and chronic pain, high degree of poor body image individual w panic attacks could function normalky. This is all complicated by 'the inability to forget anything.' The reader is good. Subjectively, for me his didn't fit someone w all those medical problems.

hope for more in future
