Dark Idol: A Mike Angel Mystery

In this complex mystery set in 1964 amidst racial divisions in Chicago, Mike receives an anonymous note with a 1934 $10,000 Federal Reserve Note with a cryptic message that the bill is payment for an unspecified future trouble. Tracking down the sender spins into a 40 year old kidnaping case involving four US Army officers in World War One, stolen gold with connections to the French Bonnot gang (the first to use autos in bank robberies), a Babylonian sex goddess cult, and trouble from Henry Ford's grandson. Death stalks Mike and Rick on this one, and threatens their client. A parallel case involving mysterious rental house fires in a neighborhood targeted for urban renewal by the Daley Administration, puts Mike and Rick in the path of City Hall hired thugs. Murder, action, suspense and the typical quicksand that is Mike’s struggle about love and commitment to Molly, in this 5th of the Mike Angel Mystery series of complex, historical, erotic novels.
