Burke Parker is found dead in a local hotel room but no one is mourning his demise. Locals describe him as a loudmouth
alcoholic. His wife Lilly and daughter Maryann are just glad that they no longer have to suffer under Burke’s tyrannical abuse. There’s only one question in everyone’s mind: Did someone
finally kill the obnoxious abusive alcoholic or did the drink finally do him in? Private detective Tom “Hawkman” Casey aims to find out.
Cause for
Murder is a who dun it (as well as a did anyone do it) that will keep the
reader guessing until the very end. This story is full of twists and turns, lots of suspects, and a good deal of suspicious behaviour that create all sorts of possible scenarios on who or what killed Burke Parker and who’s trying to cover for whom. Burke Parker is such a realistically abominable character that the reader will find him or herself almost hoping that Burke’s death was a murder caused by one of the many people he wronged while he was living.
