Out of Season

A fake birth certificate leads Indianapolis PI Albert Samson to a woman who abandoned her child in this crime novel by a writer with “brains and style” (Los Angeles Times).
 
A short television spot about the life of the average private eye gives Albert Samson hope that his economic blues are about to disappear. Better yet, his newest case looks promising too. He’s just been paid a hefty retainer by Paula Belter, who has discovered that her birth certificate is a fake. There’s no record of her existence.
 
The trail leads to an unsolved murder and a highly publicized trial that dates back decades. But as Samson connects the dots, he doesn’t end up with a pretty picture. As another murder sends the investigation spiraling out of control, the PI edges closer to the dangerous truth.
 
The smart-mouthed midwestern detective who “is always good, wry company” returns in this witty crime novel from the critically acclaimed Albert Samson series (Kirkus Reviews).
 
Out of Season is the 6th book in the Albert Samson Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
