Synopsis
Tucked away in the mountains of North Carolina lies a remnant of one of the greatest scientific achievements of the twentieth century--putting a man on the moon. This isolated site exists today as the Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute. But past and present collide when skeletal remains are unearthed on the complex, and DNA testing confirms the identity of a scientist who disappeared during the Apollo 15 mission. The niece of the murdered man implores Asheville detectives Sam Blackman and Nakayla Robertson to take the case. As Sam and Nakayla dig into the events of the past, they discover the trail leads to a murder in Asheville's Rat Alley, proving that a killer from the past still stalks the present. And Sam and Nakayla now top the assassin's list. 'The seventh Sam Blackman mystery has the right amount of action, humor, and intrigue. Fans of the humor of Robert B. Parker's Spenser series with some North Carolina history thrown in will enjoy Sam's relentless pursuit of the truth.' -- Library Journal, In this unusual spin on the classic spy novel, murder strikes from our wartime pasts... Iraq War veteran Sam Blackman with his prosthetic leg and his no-nonsense private eye partner Nakayla Robertson love their investigations which always carry a thread from the past--and they love each other. An interracial couple in the new South, the Asheville, NC, pair has surrounded themselves with a terrific support team including an unorthodox lawyer and a veteran cop. They deploy humor both to bind them together and to deflect insults. Plus, it helps deal with the tragedies their work uncovers. Such a tragedy interrupts a meeting between the PIs and the neighboring law office when a body is unearthed from the grounds of the nearby Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute. During the Cold War it monitored developing space programs. Today it plays a vital role gathering weather and climate data. The body has been in the ground a long time. Why would its discovery spark off a new murder in Asheville's mountain music scene, the victim found amid the garbage of dark, dank Rat Alley? She was the fianc e of the man murdered long ago. But surely this case is more than a domestic drama playing out over time.... The Blackman Agency Investigations excel at merging past and present, bringing little-known history to light, and are perfect for fans of James Lee Burke, Stephen Mack Jones, Margaret Maron, and Robert B. Parker., Tucked away in the mountains of North Carolina lies a remnant of one of the greatest scientific achievements of the twentieth century-putting a man on the moon.
