FROM THE PUBLISHER - The Blind Pig opens as a cop kills an armed intruder and two hit men shoot a jukebox. It would seem an open-and-shut case, but the deceased turns out to have been a hit man for the mob, and Mul finds himself smack in the middle of a gun-running plot. Meanwhile, a 'delicious kumquat' of a woman is using her own brand of ammo on Mulheisen in the after-hours world of Detroit jazz, and Mulheisen has figured out that the shootings revolve around a young man who'd struck it rich in trucking--and then everything explodes when someone pulls off a million-dollar heist. The take? Sleek, beautiful guns--enough to start a war. Guns. Everyone has one. The good guys. The bad guys. The guys in between. Mulheisen can't see the fascination, but he's made a career of cleaning up the messes. Now he's on a case that began when a cop shot a prowler, two hit men shot a jukebox, and a 'delicious kumquat' of a woman used her own brand of ammo on Mulheisen in the after-hours world of blind pigs and jazz joints. inventory #31745 ISBN: 0939767074.
