Former Chief Warrant Officer Sam Blackman lost a leg in Iraq and emerged from the V.A. hospital in Asheville, NC, as a bitter civilian without a job or a future. Now he and his partner, Nakayla Robertson, have opened a detective agency. Their first client, a quirky elderly woman in a retirement community, wants Sam to right a wrong she committed more than 70 years ago. Her victim was F. Scott Fitzgerald. Her crime was stealing a manuscript. Sam's task seems simple enough: retrieve the woman's lockbox and deliver the manuscript to Fitzgerald's heirs. But the sealed lockbox disappears, a security guard is killed, and Sam's final military case has followed him from Iraq. Are these mysteries connected? Or is one a ruse luring him into the crosshairs of his enemies? Mark de Castrique, an adjunct professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, grew up in western North Carolina. The Fitzgerald Ruse is his second Sam Blackman mystery. http://mark-et-al.com
