Moving Tables

by Stewert James

Frank Flannigan was enjoying a quiet life in idyllic Brow Point on Little Traverse Bay. After a long career as an FBI agent in Chicago, he’d traded in his suit and tie for worn jeans and a jacket; and his Bureau-issued sidearm for a snifter of his favorite scotch—Lagavulin or Dewar’s, depending on the time of day and the chore (or lack thereof) at hand. Then one autumn, customers of Frank’s Place, his small restaurant, start dying. Poisoned. The only connection—other than the fact they all had eaten at Frank’s—is a cryptic note the killer leaves at the scenes of the crimes. Flannigan soon finds himself in partnership with Matt Sharp, a local cop and another “retiree” from Chicago, as they drive the investigation. While trying to solve the murders, Flannigan also discovers that the Northern Michigan tourism trade offers more than outside adventure.
