<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> I thought that too, but Devil in a Blue Dress, the first in the series wasn’t copyrighted until 1990. Sorry if I wasn’t clear in my message request. The books were written in the 1970’s and also took place

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I have a patron that is looking for a book series he read in the 1970’s, that featured an African American renegade detective (“kind of like Shaft”…patron’s words), the patron is fairly sure the series takes place in Chicago and takes
place during the 1960’s/1970’s. It’s not Philip Marlowe of Raymond Chandler books…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions??<o:p></o:p></p>
