The Case of Bonnie & Clyde in Rome: A Laurel Private Eye Mystery Novella

Dallas, 1932

Steel magnolia Laurel just had the worst day of her marriage and career in the Pinkerton office. Fixing either seems unlikely.

In Rome, Texas, the not-quite-famous duo of Bonnie and Clyde have robbed a bank in broad daylight, kidnapping it's manager.

His mother's determination ends up cracking the door for Laurel's miracle. Given a second chance, she must team up with a husband she can't quite trust and his too quiet Pinkerton partner to find the kidnapped man before the apathetic sheriff does.

As they go on a wild chase through the raucous belly of good-time Dallas and quiet little Rome, the trail tangles and the lies pile up. Life, love and livelihood hang on the line, and nothing is as it seems...

About the Book

A fast-paced story set in 1930's Dallas, Texas, a place where the Depression has hit differently- the glamour and money from the oil boom has softened the blow, and despite Prohibition, gin joints and the men who control them live large. Bonnie and Clyde aren't international stars yet, but are starting down the murderous road that made them famous.

A fresh, suspenseful and feminine take on the classic soft-boiled detective stories of the era.
