Dead Arm by G. W. Kennedy
A Ben Barklee Mystery (1st in series)
Publisher: Sarah Book Publishing
Price: $3.99 (as of 04/20/2015 at 4:30 PM ET).
As a favor to a faculty colleague, college English professor and part-time PI Ben Barklee investigates an odd situation. His client's Indian-born wife has hired a detective to check out their daughter's fiancé, a minor-league ballplayer. The marriage detective has spotted "motorcycle hooligans" at the young man's apartment. The investigation leads Barklee, a former pitcher for the Chicago Cubs, to relive his own baseball career.
The seemingly straightforward case morphs into a web of disappearances, big-money drug-dealing, and crooked cops — all orchestrated by Chicago outlaw bikers ready to kill anyone in their way. To solve the case, and save himself and his growing family, Barklee must enter the bikers' deadly netherworld. Getting out alive means calling upon every weapon at hand. This unlikely arsenal includes Barklee's knowledge of Dickens and dormant baseball skills, along with talk radio and true-crime TV.
