A Method to Madness by Judy White.
It’s
January 1943 and things are slow for Sam Flanagan, Detroit private
detective. He’s about to call it a day and return to the woman he shares
a
home with; his eighty two year old grandmother, when in walks Chicago
socialite Phyllis Killburn. She’s the daughter of the late tire tycoon,
Alden Whitaker, and she’s got troubles. It seems her husband may be
stepping out on her with another woman and he’s keeping a big secret as
to his involvement with the military. She wants to know what’s going on
and she’s willing to pay big bucks for the information.
Sam travels to the Windy City and looks up his longtime friend, Harry Blevins, journalist for the Chicago Tribune. With Harry’s assistance, and with the inadvertent ramblings of his grandmother, will Sam be able to put all the pieces together to solve what is happening within the walls of the Whitaker Estate to stop a murder plot? The deeper Sam digs into the case, he uncovers more twists. Does Sam find a method to this madness?
