The Dead Lawyer: A sexy, racy Montreal murder mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798396950955)

A SEXY, RACY, MONTREAL MURDER MYSTERY

At fifty-five Roger Atkins had it all: an extremelysuccessful legal career, a beautiful wife, two lovely grown children, and a grand, almost century-old house in a well-to-do suburb. And then he was shot dead. By whom? The sleazy strip club manager? The real estate guy? A senior partner? His wife? Someone else?

Detective John Hands and his partner Giovanni Rossi, are in charge of the investigation. Hands is not your typical cop; an intellectual who studies psychology, visits art museums, and enjoys travelling to off the beaten track destinations. As for Rossi, his main off-duty hobby seems to be perusing escort web sites and fantasizing about prostitutes. Together they follow the clues and meet up with an array of characters from the quasi-aristocrat who counsels Roger's law firm to the nicely married heterosexual Jewish accountant who frequents gay bars to the Indian immigrant who had watched her arranged marriage husband die right before her eyes to the strip club manager who insists on personnally auditioning the would-be dancers.

A Montreal murder mystery that delves into the meanders and intricacies of the legal profession, female sexuality, and other mundane subjects, all ther while replete with horrible weather, great restaurants, a nice middle-class dysfunctional family, quirky characters, and a few kindred souls who would like nothing better than to see the lawyer dead.
