Publisher's summary

When a paintball player gets hit with a real bullet, Dave Brandstetter catches the case.

Insurance investigator Dave Brandstetter has spent the last few years drifting in and out of retirement. For the sake of his boyfriend, Cecil, he has attempted to forgo dangerous jobs. But when a close friend’s death sends Dave into a depressive funk, Cecil recognizes that work is the only cure.

During a high-stakes paintball game, a hardcore supremacist gets hit by a very real bullet. Although the police claim the death was accidental - nothing but a stray round from a nearby hunting preserve - Dave knows that a man this hated seldom dies by chance. His investigation takes him into the strange world of make-believe war - a grown-up version of cowboys and Indians whose players sometimes have trouble distinguishing fantasy from reality. If Dave isn’t careful, he’ll find himself stained with something more permanent than paint.

I was fan of Joseph Hansen's detective books way back when.... I enjoyed his sense of place exploring So California, his entanglements with murderers who killed his insurance company's paying customers, his involments with lots of of oddballs, along the way. This book did have me squirming with all the racist language, it us not usual in Hansen's work. His detective is old school- talk to enough people to find the truth.
I hope Audible adds some more of his work.
