The Blackmail: A Plainclothes Tootsie Mystery (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781736491348)

Another case has fallen onto the desk of Tootsie Carter; a female detective armed with a snub-nosed Colt .38, unmatchable wit, and a pocketful of Tootsie Rolls.

New York City, 1975

When a photo she took ends up splashed across a sleazy tabloid, Tootsie launches into an investigation to figure out who leaked it.

Pounding the pavement, she follows the leads to a seedy massage parlor.

One step inside and she knows something isn't right.

The women there need help, and Tootsie is determined to set them free.

But it won't be easy.

Sinister forces, who will stop at nothing to keep their income of dirty money flowing, are at work.

Can Tootsie break the women out of their violent shackles? Or will she find herself trapped alongside them?
