Music City Mayhymn - E-book - ePub

How do you handcuff an invisible hit man? Meet Max Malone - Nashville's #1 homicide detective, barbecue aficionado, and consummate jackass. In just one week in May, a series of suspicious deaths propels Max to unravel a time-critical mystery. Aided by his ukulele-wielding partner, Vince Wilson, and brilliant beat cop, Helen Hanover, they pursue a self-righteous vigilante playing judge, jury and cunning executioner of targets in high and low places. Like so many in Nashville, Max is a frustrated songwriter.
His vast collection of vinyl records and savant-like memory of hit songs provide a soundtrack to the race for answers through staggering revelations and the detective's own crossroads. In this extraordinary debut novel, award-winning songwriter and recording artist, Billy Sprague, exposes the layered M. O. of a human soul, and paints detective Max Malone, along with the reader, into the same desperate corner - where the only way out - means a risk-it-all leap of faith.                                             Kudos for MUSIC CITY MAYHYMN "A non-stop action page-turner with amazing twists and turns.
