New on the Mystery Bookshelf during September 2016 …
Boondoggle by Mark Rapacz, A Novel of Suspense
Publisher: 280 Steps
Young women keep showing up dead in the swamplands area of Oslo, Minnesota and nobody seems to care — except for Mack Harrison and his crewmates working as mosquito eradicators; aspiring hit man Jerry, stoner burnout Smokey, absent-minded Sid, and yoga-practicing foreman Lorne. The more the bodies pile up the more they start to think they should do something about it. Maybe. This is just how things are in Oslo. Dead girls in swamps are like the rising sun.
Still, Mack seems to be the only guy bothered by it all, but he's new to the crew — recently moved from Chicago — and those big town ideals don't always mesh well with Oslo values because there's plenty he just doesn't understand. Mack and the crew are pretty sure they know who or what is behind these deaths. They have theories. Could be Sheriff John. Could be the new med-tech giant MedSci. Could be Metro Area Vector Control itself — Mack and the crew do have the midnight task of disposing of these bodies.
Someday, they might put theory to action, but they are getting a pretty good paycheck for not doing much of anything. So, not a big deal, really.
— Boondoggle by Mark Rapacz
