The Deadly and the Dead

THE DESTINO DETECTIVES SERIES VOLUME 4 On a dark rainy night in 1947, big ugly detective Hugo Wade shoots in haste and four young WEEPING WIDOWS give him no time to repent at leisure. Then a mysterious killer, working alone and often under cover of darkness, starts eliminating people close to Wade and once again the big ugly detective is the prime suspect. Ten years later Rick Fite, the prime suspect in THE DEADLY AND THE DEAD and one of Destino’s greatest private detectives, drives his black and yellow ‘57 Chevy through the dangerous streets of a rain-soaked town in search of a killer who may turn out to be a beautiful, mysterious woman. Fite isn’t suspected of being the killer. He’s suspected of something even worse in the minds of Destino’s tough vigilante cops--having little or no respect for them and perhaps even protecting the beautiful killer from their deadly guns.
