From the Inside Flap
Chicago cabbie Cooper MacLeish is back with a vengeance, in the latest installment of this crime series of gritty action and high suspense.
"The hard-boiled fraternity has a new member, and he's a good one," said Booklist in praise of Sam Reaves's Fear Will Do It. And Publishers Weekly called the book "gritty, fast-paced, satisfying."
When readers last caught up with Cooper MacLeish, it seemed as if he enjoyed nothing more than righting the wrongs of the past--whether it was his past or not. This time out, however, although the problem has nothing to do with him, the solution could prove very personal. After agreeing to something as simple as accompanying his newspaper reporter friend Melvin Moreland on an evening drive, Cooper is drawn into a circle of corruption as wide and deep as Lake Michigan.
Moreland's beat covers nothing more risky than the occasional city hall press conference, yet when an old source comes out of the woodwork and promises to deliver a tale of some very dirty deeds, Moreland sees the makings of his first big scoop. But when he comes home to find his favorite feline in a very uncomfortable position, then receives an anonymous phone call suggesting he consider leaving well enough alone, Moreland knows he needs Cooper, if only to provide moral support.
Seduced by the scent of his first real story, Moreland convinces Cooper to join him at an exclusive party among Chicago's elite, and eventually to meet his source. But Cooper discovers more than either he or Moreland bargained for in an abandoned Streets and San garage.
Drawn into battle against the Chicago political machine, Cooper and Moreland together uncover behind-the-scenes double-dealing involving the next candidate for mayor, the local Teamsters, and a mysteriously incriminating tape that no one wants found.
Gripping and fast-paced, Bury It Deep is a rousing thriller from a powerful writer of crime fiction.
