VALENTINO
Now a novel series, too!

It's about Valentino, but not the one you think. This one's a film detective for UCLA who inadvertently becomes an amateur sleuth. He was created by Loren D. Estleman and, until now, was seen only in the short story series published exclusively by Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine. Those story titles are listed below.

Estleman contracted with Forge Books to publish
a series of novels about Valentino's adventures.
The first novel, Frames, will be published in April 2008.
 

Where is Estleman, anyway?

Typically, he's at his
1950 manual typewriter
working on the next novel.
Otherwise, look for him at events listed here:
