Killings in the Alley
By: Augie Salzer
Detective Grant Steele had hoped to find a more peaceful existence at The Villages, a quiet, safe community of mostly retirees, but he soon finds himself immersed in a series of mysterious murders in the alley behind a complex housing a physical therapy practice, pizza parlor, and beauty shop. In
, no one seems to be what they appear, all dealing with secrets and horrors in their own lives, past and present. During his investigation Steele navigates drug dealers, embezzlement, a superstitious physical therapist, a compulsive gambler, shady teenagers, mob-connected twins, and money launderers all to wrap up this massively complicated criminal case.
