The Redhead in the Cove
A teenage boy kayaking outside the San Francisco Giants baseball stadium hopes an out-of-the-park home run will gain him a floating souvenir. Instead, he discovers something macabre—the body of MaryLou Kowalski, a once beautiful young nurse, washed up on the rocks of a cove adjacent to the stadium.
When the autopsy shows she didn’t drown, the murder investigation uncovers evidence leading to a string of suspects from a small town in northern Louisiana, all the way to San Francisco. One of the suspects is Johnny Lynch, an SFPD Police Inspector and secret lover involved in an affair with the married victim. In fear and desperation, his reputation and very career on the line, he calls on his ex-partner and former Navy special forces veteran Steve Lombardi, now a struggling Private Investigator, to exonerate him and uncover the true murderer! In a race to clear his friend's name, Steve embarks on a mission that weaves him in and out of the many eccentric characters that inhabit the Bay Area.
Unfortunately, what Steve finds will haunt him forever…
Called a “classy crime thriller and a page-turning whodunit.”
