Bones and Ashes (A Dal Weeks and Jack Summers Mystery‪)‬

Thirty years. My, how the time has flown by. And with that has come changes. But that’s the way it is. Nothing ever stays the same. As old Johnny O’Brien always used to say, “Time is like a river. Either flow with it or drown.”

Here, in the near future of Bones and Ashes, 2053 has seen a bunch of changes. Johnny, long retired, has finally passed on and left Watchmaker Enterprises to a younger man, Chief Investigator Dallin Weeks.

Weeks, in respect to his late mentor and friend, opens an investigation into a Detroit cold case long troubling the mind of the retired O’Brien; the depression era disappearance of a young girl, kidnapped by henchmen of mobster boss Scarface Al Capone and thought to be murdered.

A nice safe journey down family history lane.

Or is it?
