An actor stabbed and shoved off a balcony to his death. A haunted wild west stunt show. And murder... murder... murder.
Nod Blake, the cynical, wise-cracking private eye is back. An aging throwback to a bygone era of detecting on the mean streets, he's a dinosaur of a private eye who never got the memo he was extinct.
Once again, Blake has been dumped in the midst of murder most foul. He is psychically besieged by victims, begging him from beyond the grave to solve their murders. In the real world, he's flummoxed by vandals, an anonymous blackmailer and death-defying stunt men - and hounded by a homicide detective happy to pin the killings on him.
It's an all new murder mystery with a sly sense of humor, set in 1979 Chicago where a maniacal killer riding free on the range... is the good news. The third book in Doug Lamoreux's Nod Blake Mysteries series, MURDER CAN BE A MISTAKE contains grim murder and outrageous laughs, peppered with adult themes and language.
