THE RONALD REAGAN MURDER CASE is a 60,000-word comedy mystery novel, set in Hollywood in January 1945, which introduces George Tirebiter, then a 25 year-old radio star, in his first "celebrity detective" role. Two murder mysteries engage George in this novel.
In one, he discovers that the apparent murder of Ronald Reagan's movie double could have been an early CIA double-cross, fabricated by Bill "Wild Bull" Casey! Could our beloved ex-President actually be his own stand-in? Tirebiter also follows a long covered-up killer's trail back to 1920 and solves the scandalous death of a prominent silent film director. A popular nudist camp and a famous blue movie figure prominently in the solution to this screen story, while the Golden Age adventure involves cross-dressing, army intelligence, glamorous movie stars and two live radio comedy broadcasts.
The second one, which stars Lt. "Dutch" Reagan in a tribute to Air Force Bombers, is interrupted by gunfire, and not from the sound-effects man.
In 1945, Tirebiter was riding high on CBS network radio. He and his wife, one-time glamorous showgirl Lillie Lamont, starred in the popular Friday night comedy-and-music program, "Hollywood Madhouse." At the same time, George's career as a movie director at Paranoid Pictures had plateaued with yet another B programmer, "First WAC in Tokyo."
A survivor of the Tarnished Age of Hollywood, George was blacklisted in the Fifties and forgotten for years, only to make a comeback during the Underground Sixties and actually run for Vice President of the U.S. in 1976 on the Nat'l Surrealist Party ticket. George "Porgie" Tirebiter was made famous by The Firesign Theatre in their million-selling album Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers. (1970). Played by David Ossman, Tirebiter has appeared in many live stage shows and radio broadcasts, the best of which are ready-to-hear in the 5-CD "George Tirebiter Collection," distributed by the Lodestone Catalogue. Tirebiter's long career, like that of Sherlock Holmes, continues to be far realer than fiction itself.

The Ronald Reagan Murder Case A George Tirebiter Mystery edition by David Ossman Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
One funny book.From the fourth dimensional world that only The Firesign Theatre can bring into view.
The author had a great idea for a book then blew it by being wayyyy
too cute with excessive name-dropping and far too many references to 1940s America culture. A good editor would have red-lined about half the first 20 pages, at which point I gave up....
The author knows his '40's radio culture! It was the perfect setting for a murder mystery. Of course, I've been a Firesign fan since college.
For Firesign Theatre afficianados, Ossman's book adds another layer to the stack of lenses refracting history to their peculiar focus. Even if you have no idea who the Firesign Theatre is, "The Ronald Reagan Murder Mystery" is a lot of fun. Imagine P.G. Wodehouse adrift in James Ellroy territory.
