The Plutonium Blonde

The Plutonium Blonde

Author: John Zakour

This novel is set in 2057, though it easily could have been set 100 years before. Itâs a fairly classic private eye novel with science fiction and humor galore. Zachary Nixon Johnson calls himself the last private eye on earth. While itâs not quite true, he does get his share of odd cases. The world has only grown more pop-star crazy in the intervening years and Johnson is something of a celebrity given his status as the last private eye. Heâs hired by the former stripper who now runs a massive global corporation to find her renegade clone. Johnson is paired up with a sentient AI named HARV. Of course, the seemingly minor case turns out to worldwide ramifications that could get dangerous for Johnson. Why It Made the List Itâs clear that Zakour is also a humorist, a fact that he doesnât try to hide. The book is laugh-out-loud funny in place and smirk-worthy in many others. The weird combination of characters and events will keep the reader guessing and smiling up to the last page. Read It If You Likehardboiled private eyes, future settings, humor
