xMurders in the Swash
A Shannon Breen Mystery
Myrtle Beach, summer 1956. The Grand Strand is in full bloom - neon motor courts, the Pavilion thumping with Fats Domino, convertibles cruising Ocean Boulevard, and a tourist economy that runs on Coppertone, cotton candy, and the unspoken promise that nothing bad ever happens at the beach.
Then Detective Shannon Breen's Sunday morning is broken by a phone call. Two boys, neither older than fifteen, have been found at the edge of Withers Swash. Beaten. Discarded in the cordgrass like they were nothing.
A transplant from Raleigh still carrying the scars of last summer's Langford case, Breen knows the kind of town Myrtle Beach wants to be - and the kind it actually is. The Pavilion glitters by night, but its game booths and ride platforms are staffed by runaways and reform-school kids that nobody is looking for. When a third body turns up at an abandoned horse track, Breen realizes the killer isn't passing through. He's hunting. He's patient. And he knows exactly which boys won't be missed.
With his partner Tom McManus, the steady counsel of Vivian Ashford, and a willingness to listen to the witnesses everyone else has written off, Breen follows a trail that winds from the coin laundries off Broadway to a fish house counter in Ridgeway, from a trailer park stakeout to a reform school visiting room - toward a man whose ordinariness is the most terrifying thing about him.
The Boys at the Swash is a richly atmospheric Southern noir steeped in the salt, sweat, and uneasy glamour of a postwar resort town on the cusp of becoming something else. Perry Comer's second Shannon Breen mystery is a story about the children at the margins, the towns that look away, and the quiet, dogged work of a detective who refuses to.
