The District Detectives - J. Arens

. .

Biographie:
J. Arens grew up on the Western Shore of Southern Michigan. Her days filled with horses, dogs, day dreams of fast cars and a love for great literary detectives. Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, Philip Marlowe, Sam Spade, Sherlock Holmes, and brilliant but dangerous men who inhabit the pages of History during the time of the Volstead Act. The District Detective series was born out of the need to read books that blended together the best things of all of J. Arens' favorites. All while set in Prohibition Era Middle-America. When not working on the latest District Detective novel, or coming up with ideas for the next novel, J. Arens can be found behind the desk at the local NAPA auto parts store, attending local car shows, riding horses with friends, cuddling with police dog training drop-out, Dutch Shepherd mix, Dutchess and daydreaming about fast cars....

Sommaire:
There's been a murder.... Those four words are bad enough, but when the craftiest of the three mob bosses utters them in the District Detective office, they carry a whole new kind of weight. Olivia Wainwright and Dallas Stowe are always prepared for the unexpected, but this announcement has them wondering what to do with the information given to them, and speculating why Razor would bring it to their attention...and in person. A dead pharmacist, a crazy, spur-of-the-moment science experiment on a gut feeling and the detectives are whisked off into the wild world of prescription booze during the Prohibition. A few more deaths by cyanide and the detectives are finally hot on the heels of what's going on around Big Town. Someone is trying to horn in on Razor's moonshine business and nothing good will come from that. Can Olli and Dallas get to the bottom of who's behind the bid for Big Town's taste for moonshine before a full-fledged booze war comes to Big Town? Pick up the exciting third installment of The District Detective Series! ...
