And he is beginning to wonder how many ways one guy can die. At this point, he is convinced he will spend eternity as the reoccurring murder victim in an eerie film world purgatory.
In this paranormal mystery, Warren wakes inside a new character aboard a tramp steamer returning from Cuba during the 1930s. The man discovers his role as a wealthy playboy, but he has no idea why his character is involved with an unsavory group of associates for ten grand in cash. By the time his ship docks in Boston, Warren is a wanted man, just one-step away from capture and the gallows.
In a bizarre reality already engraved into celluloid by long dead writers, the fugitive must adapt to an era of beautiful dames and dangerous lies while trying to find the real murderer. Like a multitude of black and white mysteries, the condemned man is on the run from the police while trying to outwit hoodlums and their allies.
Can Warren live long enough to find the real murderer or does he remain a film noir character in the Infinite Loop?
Gordon Brewer is the pseudonym for a professional geek, history buff, and full time dad who took up a challenge from his son to finish his first novel and enter the world of writing. Raised on a farm in Kansas, the author spent nearly 5 years in the US Navy traveling to 12 different countries during this time. After his discharge, he received his BS degree with double majors in History and Political Science.
Over the next 20 years, Gordon focused on the business and IT world. His experiences left him with a need to explore wide ranging interests in multiple genres, each with historical consideration given to the characters and settings.
Residing in Tennessee, he often uses his family and friends as unfortunate guinea pigs where they are forced to listen to his tales, no matter how poorly conceived they may be.

This book needs to be edited. There are typos and missed words and errors on every other page. Literally. Almost as if it was a first or second draft. Having said that, it was interesting. I enjoyed the book. It brought me back to Raymond Chandler's plots, if not a smattering of his style. The spirit world and other dimensions were used in conjunction to heighten the suspense of this 1930's noir melodrama. I wasn't keen on the ending, in that I do not have the same philosophical thoughts on the afterlife as the author or what he thinks his characters believe. I suggest the author take this out of circulation and have it edited. It is publishable material in a finished form.
