Say It Was Murder Stephen Mertz

McShan is tough and smart, one of the top operatives for the detective agency Honeycutt Personal Services. But he has his hands full when he's sent to the picturesque desert landscape of southeastern Arizona to check on the well-being of a former Olympic gymnast who's become involved with a New Age cult. It doesn't take long for murder to rear its ugly head, and McShan finds himself neck-deep in a case involving vicious bikers, an unassuming barber who may be a criminal mastermind, a wealthy entreprenuer hiding dangerous secrets, and too many beautiful blondes with deadly secrets of their own. Critically acclaimed thriller author Stephen Mertz returns with a private eye novel in the classic mold, crackling with suspense and plot twists, populated with compelling characters, and told with a sharp, contemporary edge that will leave the reader breathless.
