Hunting the Mail Order Murderer

A Bitter Wind Mystery

Beschreibung

A lovely Filipino is found dead in the city park. The body of a Russian beauty is found lifeless in a run-down motel. The corpse of a gorgeous Eastern European is discovered in a park forty miles away. All strangled. All mail order brides. All connected. Somehow. Retired homicide detective Arn Anderson agrees to help his friend, reporter Ana Maria Villarreal, hunt for the killer. Their investigation takes them to the seedier side of life: the railyards of the Union Pacific; a shady international mail order bride business in Denver; motels Arn and Ana Maria would otherwise never be caught dead in... The suspects are many: an Iraq War vet with serious PTSD; a local businessman known to bring women into the country illegally on the pretense of marriage; the killer of a business couple in Denver years before; any local pervert with a desire to date exotic women. And murder them. Arn and Ana Maria better watch their backs-the killer knows they are getting close to uncovering him. Or her. And this killer will do what the killer has always done-whatever it takes to stay free to kill again. Which means Arn and Ana Maria might be the next victims...

Autor

C. M. Wendelboe entered the law enforcement profession when he was discharged from the Marines as the Vietnam war was winding down. In the 1970s, his career included assisting federal and tribal law enforcement agencies embroiled in conflicts with American Indian Movement activists in South Dakota. He moved to Gillette, Wyoming, and found his niche, where he remained a sheriff's deputy for more than twenty-five years. During his thirty-eight-year career in law enforcement he had served successful stints as police chief, policy adviser, and other supervisory roles for several agencies. Yet he always has felt most proud of "working the street." He was a patrol supervisor when he retired to pursue his true vocation as a fiction writer. Wendelboe is a prolific author of murder mysteries with a Western flair, as well as traditional Westerns. He writes the Spirit Road Mysteries, the Bitter Wind Mystery series, as well as the Nelson Lane Frontier Mysteries, and the Tucker Ashley Western Adventure series.
