New on the Mystery Bookshelf during June 2016 …
The Detective & The Chinese High-Fin by Michael Craven, A John Darvelle Mystery (2nd in series)
Publisher: Harper
Click here to take a Look Inside The Detective & The Chinese High-Fin.
Private Detective John Darvelle is back — drinking cheap beer, playing ping-pong and sharing his philosophy on everything from work/life balance to restaurants with bad air-conditioning. (He doesn't believe in the former, he despises the latter.)
Darvelle is hired to find the killer of Keaton Fuller, a well-born Los Angeles man gunned down in his own driveway. The cops couldn't solve the case, in part because everyone who came in contact with Keaton despised him. Translation: Anybody could have done it. Following a trail of the dead man's betrayals, Darvelle finds himself in the exotic, high-stakes world of rare tropical fish. The fish are certainly valuable enough to kill for, but is there something more menacing going on?
As Darvelle relentlessly drives toward the truth, a showdown awaits that is at once riveting, visceral, and very, very dangerous. It's a case only he could solve — just as long as he's willing to put his life on the line.
