Cain and Able Mysteries, Volume 2 -- Danny Cain and Ruth Able pursue a double cop killer and a missing farming community librarian in this second volume of the crime fighting duo's adventures. Dodging rifle bullets and suffering a kidnapping is routine for these two detectives who work under contract with law enforcement to solve the most elusive criminals. Action takes place in the heart of north-central Illinois farming country in Ca. 1956, when there were no personal computers or magical cell phones to assist.
Hard-nosed detective work, often under the scrutiny of full-time cops who were not 'believers' in the proven ability of Cain and Able. In this adventure, Cain is obliged to establish an alliance with a Chicago mob boss to find the killer. Making matters worse, things are no always as they seem.
