The Brimstone Murders by Jeff Sherratt
Robbie Farris stabbed his junior college professor twenty-seven times.At his arraignment, after he pulls a gun and escapes, and after his mother is found murdered in her shabby house trailer, Robbie's lawyer, Jimmy O'Brien, is led into the seemingly unrelated worlds of high-profile, religious evangelism and old-fashioned Mojave Desert borax mining.
Jimmy fights the clock, the cops, and the DA in his effort to find and return Robbie before he himself is charged with Section 187--murder in the first degree.
Author Jeff Sherratt has obviously studied the masters of the crime genre, yet he still manages to bring his own unique and talented spin to the table. Reading The Brimstone Murders is like going to an old-fashioned Saturday matinee - so sit back and enjoy the action, the fun, and the cast of colorful characters. Popcorn optional. -- Sue Ann Jaffarian, author of The Odelia Grey mystery series
The Brimstone Murders is filled to the brim with good fun and great action. Jeff Sherratt has come up with a winner in this wonderful vintage mystery featuring criminal defense attorney Jimmy O'Brien. -- Michele Scott, author of The Wine Lovers Mystery Series and the Horse Lovers Mystery Series (Berkley Prime Crime)
