The Caesar Clue

Micah Dunn Mysteries #2

by Malcolm Shuman

When a mysterious young woman places an urgent call to Micah Dunn, the New Orleans private eye dutifully agrees to meet her incoming flight at the airport. Though a bit puzzled by Julia Morvant's cryptic telephone message, Dunn has no reason to suspect a case out of the ordinary--until his prospective client's plane is blown from the sky on its final approach to New Orleans International Airport. When the authorities confirm that foul play is responsible for the tragic explosion, Dunn knows that Julia Morvant must somehow be connected. But was she an unwitting accomplice to the heinous act or an innocent victim? Micah Dunn resolves to find out as much as he can about Julia Morvant--who she was, where she came from, and why she so desperately needed to meet him. He soon finds himself sniffing out a corrupt trail that winds from the dingiest alleys of New Orleans' underworld to much higher--and even more dangerous--places.
