I’ve never taken drugs but I understand that pushers often hand out the first fix for free in order to get somebody hooked. Cunning strategy, sez I.
So starting today, the E-Book of Shadow Hand Blues will be free on Amazon for a few days.
Deke Jones debuted in Fast Cars and Rock & Roll, where he learned some lessons about women, and people in general, while playing in a band and racing in a “One Lap of America”-style campaign.
This time it is his private investigator creds which are put to the test.
The purchase of a vintage electric guitar leads Jones into a 40-year-old cold case murder mystery involving an enigmatic blues man, swindling record producers, hop-head disc jockeys, and dead prostitutes.
To dig through all that, Jones has to temporarily set up shop in a bizarre hippie town seemingly caught in a time warp. Meanwhile Deke encounters some of his old friends, a sweet country girl and an intriguing older woman…just to name a few.
Suffice it to say: there’s a lot more that comes to light than just clearing up the murder.
