As with Kenna’s excellent, Shamus-nominated first novel, this one features the world-weary and tough P.I. Kate Miles as she tackles a new murder mystery—actually two murder mysteries, one old and cold, one new and hot. Very hot indeed, as the setting this time is an idyllic California mountain town plagued by wildfires. There’s heat, also, in the budding romance between Miles and local man, to whom she is powerfully attractive. Another fascinating and suspenseful P.I. tale from Kenna.
Told in alternating timelines, this gripping mystery about a PI and her quest for answers is full of twists and turns, perfect for fans of Allison Brennan and Gytha Lodge.
Struggling private investigator Kate Myles is shattered to learn her late father isn't her biological dad. She's still reeling when she discovers that an unknown distant relative is the prime suspect in a decades-old murder investigation. Trying to convince her to take on the case for free, an old colleague recommends her as an investigator for a recent arson murder in the same small town.
It is April 1st, 2038. Day 60 of China's blockade of the rebel island of Taiwan.
The US government has agreed to provide Taiwan with a weapons system so advanced that it can disrupt the balance of power in the region. But what pilot would be crazy enough to run…
Another vivid and beguiling mystery from Canadian author Alexis Stefanovich-Thomson. Set in Toronto in the 1960s, the book follows Patrick Bird (the loveable P.I. from Stefanovich-Thomson first novel) as he tries to solve the murder of a reclusive tenant in his mother-in-law’s boarding house. What begins as a gritty, urban whodunnit soon opens-up into a thriller involving an international conspiracy. I haven’t been so wrapped-up in a historical novel since Walter Mosley’s "Devil in a Blue Dress".
A missing tenant, an irate mother-in-law, and a killer hiding in a Toronto rooming house ― out-of-work PI Patrick Bird is back in business.
Patrick Bird thought he was helping his mother-in-law collect back rent from a deadbeat tenant at her Ossington Avenue rooming house, not starting a new investigation. But when he discovers Jack Turner's third-floor darkroom is demolished and the photographer is missing, the other tenants come under scrutiny: Mr. Yusuf, the international student training to be a doctor; Danny Blinken, the shifty taxi driver; and Shirley Burton, the young nurse far from home.
