Between his pension and the insurance check, they said, he had a nice, easy retirement to look forward to. But Fred Carver would rather have his knee. His career finished, his marriage over, he takes a halfhearted stab at private detective work, and is already sick of it by the time he meets Edwina Talbot, a beautiful woman who wants him to find her dead lover.Of course, Edwina doesnÆt believe her lover is actually dead. Every piece of evidence at the crime scene pointed to suicide, but as far a sheÆs concerned her man is just missing and Fred Carver is going to bring him back. Carver wants nothing to do with it, but he canÆt say no to a little adventure. Some men just arenÆt built for taking it easy.This ebook features an illustrated biography of John Lutz including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the authorÆs personal collection.
