Produktbeschreibung

Meet Lowan, a telepathic alien working as a private detective in the 1930s!

Lowan and Marx barely survived their last case, and the next one comes at them all too quickly. Their next target: Guido Genovesi, the second member of the insurance syndicate. The man they find defies their expectations-a cook, a husband, and a father, who wanted nothing more than to run a restaurant and secure his family's future. When events at his restaurant spiral out of control amid a web of revenge, insurance fraud, and mistaken identity, Genovesi's desperate bid for a new beginning collides with the misdeeds of a past that wasn't his own. Hunted by both the police and a man he never wronged, Genovesi makes a deal he might not live to keep. Conspiracies unravel, danger escalates, and every choice could be fatal. What price must be paid for redemption?

S. E. Grosskopf's writing is strongly influenced by the old pulp fiction magazines and Golden Age radio dramas of the 1930s-1950s. If you like fast-paced action and mystery with a dash of urban fantasy and quirkiness, then you'll love these books. This is the sixteenth book in the series. The books follow chronologically. Reading them in order is recommended.

Autorenporträt

I grew up listening to old radio programs on NPR. Mysteries were always my favorite, especially The Shadow. When I found out that there were Shadow books also, and that the books were way better than the radio program, I ended up reading over a hundred of them. Along with copious amounts of Doc Savage and just about everything by Edgar Rice Burroughs.

And that was my introduction to pulp fiction. Fast-paced action, larger-than-life heroes and dastardly villains, clever dialogue, and one plot twist after another. Never a dull moment. I couldn't get enough of it.

In college, I double majored in English and History. My history professor once said to me, "You like the 1930s? You should read The Great Gatsby. It's the most exciting book ever!"

My response? "It's just people sitting around talking to each other. It needs more car chases and gunfights!"

Ah, well . . .

Everyone always says, "You majored in English and History? So, you're going to be a teacher?"

Nope, I'd rather write crazy mystery-fantasy-historical . . . pulp fiction.

I currently live on the shoreline of Lake Michigan, in a house built by my great-grandfather in the 1930s. I also play ragtime piano and have a small calico cat.
