MURDER BOOK

Peter Berkrot portrays PI Harry Duncan with a confident authority that reflects Duncan's intelligence, street smarts, ingenuity, and caring. Perry fans will recognize the mix of innocents needing defending, seriously bad guys, and tense chase scenes. Duncan is hired by his ex-wife, a U.S. attorney, to investigate what appears to be organized crime moving into small Midwestern towns. Duncan immediately finds himself caught in a web of criminals while trying to save a woman whose bar has been targeted for protection money. The plot circles around one small town, and Duncan is intent on getting to the bottom of it all. Berkrot effectively differentiates characters, male and female, and keeps the plot moving through an intense standoff scene. E.Q. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2023]
