His secretive lodger still won’t spill the beans, but Slater knows it’s up to him to protect her from whoever is out to get her.The question is, how will he manage any of this without the clout of Tinton Police behind him? And will Slater’s and Norman’s new venture weather the storm? Not quite police procedural, and not quite cozy mystery, the Dave Slater Mystery Series is a series that has a sense of humour and doesn’t take itself too seriously.
