Jim Kanady - on Goodreads December 5, 2025 A prostitute is beaten and thrown out window. Two others have gone missing. The establishment's owner/madam, Queena Capps, hires a Tulsa, Oklahoma private investigator to get answers. Like Alice down the rabbit hole, these early incidents propel a reader into a crime morass comparable to greats from the past. Yes, it is that good! Dean Clark - on Amazon 5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2025 Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase This novel is ideal for fans of hard-boiled detective fiction. The noirish plot, set in 1948, meanders through Tulsa and environs and the journey is enhanced by very thorough historical research. The characters are memorable and superbly depicted. Definitely a five star debut. Mark Shultz - on Goodreads December 6, 2025 Scott's Tulsa is a great example of wonderful writing in the noir thriller category! I loved this story! It was gritty enough that it made me squirm and shift in my chair at times! Almost too descriptive for me in a few places, others will love it. The characters were drawn so well, the scenes fit the mood and the action perfectly.
