Download No Game for a Dame: Maggie Sullivan Mystery, Book 1 AudioBook Free
A .38, a nip of gin, and sensational thighs get Depression-era detective agency Maggie Sullivan out of all scrapes - until a stranger threatens to bust her nostril, she's hauled in on suspicion of his murder and she locates herself in the cross-hairs of a crime employer with cable connections at City Hall. Moving through roads where people line up at soup kitchens, Maggie draws information from resources others ignore: the waitress at the dime store lunch break counter where she has breakfast time; a ragged newsboy; the other job young ladies at her rooming house. Her digging gets her chloroformed and still left in a ditch when driving of her DeSoto. She makes her way for an upscale bordello and gets tea - and information - from the madam herself. A gunman sets a bullet through Maggie's head wear. Her shutterbug pal on the night time paper warns her off. A fresh cop whose presence unsettles her believes she's crooked. Before she locates all the answers she needs, she encounters a half-crazed man with a weapon, and an even more lethal point-blank killer. If you want Robert B. Parker's hard boiled Spencer series and strong women sleuths, don't miss this one-of-a-kind Ohio detective from a time in USA record when dames used hats - but rarely a Smith & Wesson.
