New from Capital Press: Last Call by JD Seamus.
About the book, from the publisher:
Far from being a saint, Jimmie Collins has amassed a small fortune fencing things that ‘fall off the back of trucks’. Happens a lot in Manhattan. Life takes an unexpected turn when he receives the news he has cancer and is forced to prepare for the inevitable. To take care of his family financially, Jimmie has to find someone to go overseas and bring back his laundered fortune. He turns not to his friends but to a bookie who assures him that he has “just the right guy for the job.” The money never comes though and it isn’t until Jimmie is dead that his friends realize something is amiss. Who took Jimmie’s money and why? Can Jimmie’s friends find the culprit and right this terrible wrong? You bet and when his buddies come to the rescue, the adventure begins.
Last Call is a surprisingly rich and atmospheric whodunit. Part mystery, part comedy, and part action-adventure, the novel chronicles in sparkling style the lives of a diverse group who frequent Jimmie Collins’ bar, fall in and out of love, and come together to help their good friend. Last Call is sometimes hilarious, sometimes tragic as the hapless friends rally their forces to do what any good friends would: Save the day.
