Oh Slay, Can You Sea?

This is the tenth of a series of novels that revolve around JP Parker a 100 year old long time retired New York City private detective from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. In the sequel to Out Of His Past the Parkers use some of the money Doris has made from her writing to buy a small summer cottage at the Jersey shore. Within two weeks after moving in Doris and JP are pulled into a complex jumble of organized crime, cover-ups, lies, ruined careers, long buried family secrets, illegal gambling, and murder. This bewildering combination of seemingly unrelated events puts the detective and his wife into the most desperate situation of their lives. And if that’s not enough, an indiscretion by Doris makes their difficult circumstances even worse. Oh Slay, Can You Sea? shows how one event can effect multiple generations, which is why it takes over 50 years before the final piece of the puzzle is revealed.
