Daniel Klein wrote some mysteries with Elvis as an amateur sleuth. I also see where
Someone else has written a mystery with Elvis as a PI.
Elvis Has Not Left the Building (Elvis Mystery Series #1) [Kindle Edition]

Now, I just wish somebody would write some mysteries with other rock stars as the sleuth.
Such as:
Keith Richards and the Mystery at the Rehab Center
Bruce Springsteen and the Mystery at the Abandoned Factory
Brian Wilson and the Mystery of the Disappearing Surfboards
Tom Fogarty and the Mystery of the Bayou

(12,132 posts)in the Sookie Stackhouse vampire books (on which the HBO series True Blood is based).
The story goes that when he died and was brought to the morgue the attendant was a vampire and a fan and tried to save him by turning him vampire but he was already too far gone for the change to completely work so he shuffles around the woods outside Bon Temp and eats cats. He also protects Sookie and will mostly do what he's told if he trusts the person telling him.
The vampires call him Bubba because they don't want to call attention to him and have people flocking to Louisiana (or wherever they happen to be storing him as they move him around to different territories to keep the chances of him being sighted down) in search of the King and tromping through their domain.
And every once in a great great while he will sing a little and thrill anyone near who hears but I think there is just enough left in his brain that singing reminds him of what he used to be and makes him sad.
