Jules Mudson: A Novella
A young banker. A mysterious bookshop owner. Two murders that change everything.
Boston, 1967. Amid the Red Sox's historic pennant race, young John Donohue lands a coveted job at one of the country's most powerful investment banks. But his life takes a sharp turn after a chance encounter with Jules Mudson—an enigmatic bookstore owner with a war hero’s past and a hidden present.
When John’s boss is found murdered near the Hatch Shell, the police write it off as a robbery. But John isn’t so sure. As he digs deeper into bank ledgers, war records, and his own father, he uncovers a web of secrets, betrayal, and quiet power—with a man whose contradictions and code inspire him to rethink his future.
Set against the backdrop of a city rallying around the hometown baseball team, Jules Mudson is a taut, coming-of-age literary mystery that explores the cost of truth—and the people who protect it.
