Psychedelic Detective

MW Taylor’s debut crime novella introducing 1960’s San Francisco private detective, Aristotle Canasta. Psychedelic Detective is a free-wheeling, 1960’s set story, of murder and corruption inside San Francisco’s decadent music scene.

Detective Aristotle Canasta is a P.I. with weaknesses for hallucinatory substances, whiskey and the wrong kind of women. Hired by music producer, Mick Jungel,  to surveil sultry blues singer Simone LeCarrie, Aristotle falls hard for this leggy mysterious brunette. Once Jungel is viciously murdered, Aristotle and Simone are named suspects for Jungel's murder by a SFPD secret society; the Irish Mafia. To clear his name, Aristotle must maneuver through San Francisco's decadent music scene and find Mick Jungle's true killers and to strike back at the Irish Mafia and clear his name.
