Winner of the "Love is Murder" People's Choice Award for Best Private Eye Series Detective Ron Shade is back in Michael A. Black's follow-up to his acclaimed Chicago mystery, A Killing Frost . This time, a chance encounter leads to intrigue and murder, and only Shade can unravel the strings to the past and the present. How much do you owe a past love? Private Detective Ron Shade wonders when he bumps into his former love, Paula Kittermann, late one December night in a hote bar. Paula had once been a major factor in Shade's life, but that was a very long time ago. Against his better judgement, he lets her back in, but then she's gone, without so much as a good-bye kiss, leaving him once again with only bittersweet memories of what might have been. Then she turns up dead, the apparent victim of a hit-and-run accident. Shade moves on with his life until Paula's young cousin, Laurie, shows up in Chicago, asking him to look into the matter. Shade's investigation takes a walk on the seedy side and begins to atract the attention of some very powerful enemies. But whenever Shade gets close to the truth, somebody seems to end up dead, and he suddenly finds himself the prime suspect in a homicide investigation. Working to clear himself and find out who killed Paula, Shade goes up against some redoubtable foes who will stop at nothing to ensure his search for the truth won't be completed. Michael A. Black graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2000 with a Master of Fine Arts Degree in Fiction Writing. Michael is currently a sergeant on the Matteson, Illinois Police Department.
