The third volume in THE FRANK GOULD MYSTERIES brings us closer to a final confrontation with all the evils Frank and his allies have been unmasking. Frank is pulled back to the Midwest on multiple tasks, business and personal, only to discover the spiral is both widening and narrowing in ways that sharpen and confuse. How rudely coincidental! How usual! And then... And then... A stolen french horn! Threatened lives! A friend half beaten to death! And a villain revealed! Want to know more? Read the book descriptions for the previous titles. Better yet, read the books and get to know the story...an absolute necessity to pick up where this one begins... In this continuation of our long, four-novel introductory saga, which began with BUT TELL IT SLANT and marched on in WE MUST AN ANGUISH PAY, it almost looks like Frank and friends are going in some other direction. For a moment. Next, you’ll have to catch up for the conclusion of this first mystery in A RIDDLE AT THE LAST.
