Leave Murder to the Professionals

The homefront, spring 1944, Brooklyn, New York is the neo-noir setting for the final installment of Maeve O’Shaughnessy and Vic Marino’s journey since becoming partners in the O’Shaughnessy Investigations detective agency.

After being drawn into World War II with the attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941, the United States wholeheartedly united to fight Hitler and Fascism overseas. No one could have foreseen the tragedies and sacrifices everyone would endure. From that date on, Americans dedicated themselves to victory with a shared purpose at home and abroad. Many paid the ultimate price for freedom. Those at home did everything they could to provide support and ensure victory while living lives they never expected.

In Book 1 Maeve, a secretary, was forced through circumstance to allow ex-cop Vic to help her save a failing detective agency her three brothers established but left her in charge of when they went to fight in the war. Besides knowing nothing about running such an agency, she was also guardian of her fifteen-year old brother. Vic brought his streetwise knowledge to support Maeve.
