Murder and Mystery!-Wonderful.

By Mia Johnson

Justifiable Homicide by Gerald Darnell made me enjoy my leisure time and I love this tale. Gerald has his own unique way of revealing the mystery and I love how this one has been composed. This was a very engaging and mind gripping read for me. Combined with murder and mystery the tales runs through an investigation making the reader feel the heat and depth of it. Well developed characters which are included contributions to the main plot and I recommend this narration for others as well.

The racial problems of 1962 have found their way to the small West Tennessee town of Humboldt.

Carson’s friend is a colored man who once worked for his grandfather, but the accusations and problems extend beyond the crime and to the heart of this small community.
Carson finds a divided town; a town divided along the lines of race and the interference of outside groups, which makes this division even wider.
Challenged with defending his friend, Carson must find a solution before the two sides collide, which would definitely have devastating results.
Join Carson, as he faces one of his toughest challenges in ‘the Crossing.’

The Illegals (Carson Reno Mystery Series – Book 8) by Gerald W. Darnell – #Mysteries, #CrimeThrillers, #CrimeFiction

Ger the illegals

Line Blurb
All Carson Reno Mystery Series Books are standalone novels. It is not necessary to read them in any particular order.
Crime DOES pay – especially crime that has the support of our legal system.
Carson’s investigative work for Attorney Jack Logan runs smack into the path of the largest law firm in West Tennessee. Trying to stay out of their path only succeeds in putting Carson in the crosshairs of lawyers who want him out of the way.
Power struggles, infidelity, organized crime and eventually murder all appear to be somehow linked to this powerful law firm – McCabe, McCabe, Clark, and Lewis.
This is a story of the small versus the large in a little West Tennessee community that has no idea of the crime and corruption that lay underneath their quiet daily lives.
Join Carson as he takes on the fight of his career when he challenges ‘the Illegals.’

By Larry Alexander
A small town in the 1960’s must deal with some big-time crime. Written and delivered in the fashion of Sam Spade and Phillip Marlowe, the author magically transports the reader back in time – a time that should be simpler, but isn’t. A tough Private Detective uses his muscle and humor to sort through clues and resolve a complicated murder. This is a Classic Carson Reno Mystery with all the usual characters and compelling conversations for the reader. Light illustrations help tell the story and complete the reader’s transition back in time.
