Paperback. MILES LUGER AND THE SEXY SPECTER A Modern Day Tale of Murder, Mystery and a Smokin' Hot Ghost Times are tough for Milwaukee private investigator and Gulf War vet, Miles Luger. When his only employee, Lillian Del Porto, is killed by sniper fire he figures things can't get much worse. That is, until Lil's ghost shows up. Apparently, her violent death has destabilized the universal balance of good and evil. It can happen. Anyway, she's stuck between life and afterlife until Luger can find her murderer and set the scales of justice right. Accompanying Luger on his quest for cosmic harmony is Lil's no-nonsense ghost. At first appearance she's just like her sixty-something earthly presence. But, as soon as she realizes she's able to choose how she looks, she takes the form of her twenty year old beauty queen self. Hey, who wouldn't? Luger, of course, is immediately smitten with the sexy specter. As the story progresses, Lil's handy talent for transfiguration also results in vampish Brit bon vivant, Lyle, and a towering ghost monster that materializes out of nowhere to protect Luger from a charging north woods bear. So, who killed Lil? At first, her drug addled nephew and only surviving family member, Philip Del Porto, seems like a slam dunk for murder one. Or was it Phil's prostitute girlfriend, Adrienne Weth? Then there's Adrienne's adoptive dad, Augie. He wastes no love on the Del Porto clan. The wide circle of malice that surrounds Phil also includes a pair of disgruntled partners in methamphetamine production who, by the way, dabble in the illegal slaughter and organ harvesting of exotic animals for use as Far Eastern aphrodisiacs. Time and again, Luger's investigation bumps into Elton Mott, longtime Milwaukee crime boss. Two decades earlier, Mott evaded conviction for murdering Lil's policeman father. And it's no secret that the nefarious kingpin resents Adrienne Weth's infringement on his piece of, ah, slice of the local flesh trade. Mott is also using strong arm intimidation--even murder--to advance a shady billion dollar downtown redevelopment project. Always lurking nearby is Mott's ultra buff gay bodyguard whose name is Ralphie but who likes to be called Spike. MILES LUGER AND THE SEXY SPECTER offers plenty of suspects with plenty of motives to keep you guessing until the final scene. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
