Lucky Bones

A case of stolen shoes leads maverick Chicago PI Sam Kelson into something far darker and deeper in the second of this hardhitting crime noir series. My boyfriend`s been stealing my Jimmy Choos. Genevieve Bower has hired private investigator Sam Kelson to recover her stolen shoes from her soon-to-be-ex-boyfriend. The problem is that no one`s seen Genevieve`s boyfriend for the past two weeks. Events take a disturbing twist when, in his search for the shoes, Kelson comes across a body, shot in the head. A clear-cut case of suicide - or is it? Has Kelson`s client been wholly honest with him? What is this case really about? At the same time, an explosion rips through one of the city`s public libraries, leaving a friend`s nephew critically injured. Could there be a connection? If there is, Kelson`s determined to find it. But Kelson`s not like other investigators. Taking a bullet in the brain during his former career as a Chicago cop, he suffers from disinhibition: he cannot keep silent or tell lies when questioned - and his involuntary outspokenness is about to lead him into dangerous waters . . .
