Meet Garrett, P.I. He's a hardboiled human detective who stands out in a crowd of elves, trolls, and other otherworldly denizens in the magical city of TunFaire. Garrett For Hire collects three novels from Glen Cook's classic urban fantasy series. Deadly Quicksilver Lies: A rich woman hires Garrett to find her missing daughter... or to act as her hitman. In TunFaire, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, leaving him no choice but to sift through the sex, intrigue, and murder to uncover the truth behind this case... Petty Pewter Gods: With TunFaire real estate at a premium and prayer palaces at a minimum, the big gods on the block hold a contest: find the key to the one temple still available for worship. And when two rival pantheons try to hire Garrett to find it on their behalf, he finds himself facing the wrath of gods... Faded Steel Heat: Riots between humans and non-humans have turned TunFaire into a war zone. And when a powerful gang of human rightists drag Garrett into the fray, he defends himself with a circle of friends no one would wish on their worst enemy...
