The Man Everyone Was Afraid Of: No. 4 in the Dave Brandstetter Series (Dave Brandstetter Private Eye Novel S.) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Police Chief Ben Orton had a gift for making enemies. He was proud to count among them hippies, homosexuals, and subversives of every race and religion. When his body was found, head smashed in, the locals were shocked, less because of the gruesome murder than because someone had finally dared cross Orton.

The cops immediately nabbed gay activist Cliff Kerlee. He'd threatened the Chief's life at a heated demonstration. Case closed.

Until Dave Brandstetter steps in. Dave won't buy it. Nothing fits. Orton's family won't talk. Townspeople raise more questions than they answer. What is the newswoman hiding? Why does she send her attractive young assistant after Dave, even to his bed? Dave pursues answers to the seamy, intricate puzzle. Step by step he gets closer to the truth. Until he reaches it - and finds himself face to face with death.
