Publisher Description
A COP WHO LOST EVERYTHING. A KILLER WHO WILL STOP AT NOTHING.
In the exclusive enclave of Grosse Pointe, Michigan, a woman who builds custom guitars is murdered. A disgraced ex-cop turned private investigator is hired by the dead woman’s father and immediately becomes the target of a violent ex-convict. An enigmatic music star performs damage control on her links to the dead woman. And a professional killer who idolizes Keith Richards is brought into town by a mysterious employer.
Dead Wood is what great mysteries are all about: love, hate, faith and vengeance, all wrapped up in an explosive story that simply refuses to let up.
“Dead Wood is a fast-paced, unpredictable mystery with an engaging narrator and a rich cast of original supporting characters.” –Thomas Perry, Edgar-winning author of The Butcher’s Boy.
Customer Reviews
A great fast-paced read
It's not easy to write with the kind of pace that glues the reader to the chair till the end. The humour is just right, the action good and the story plausible. Downloaded as a freebie, I'm so impressed I'm buying the sequel.
