No reviews yet. Be the first.

When a professional assassin targets Tulsa PI, Wyatt Scott, he’s dragged back into a world of Cold War espionage he thought he left behind in Alaska. The murder of a Japanese diplomat pulls Scott into a tangled web connecting his wartime past to a deadly Soviet spy ring. Before he can locate the Russian spy, a local baseball star is brutally murdered, and the sheriff arrests his addled old pal, Bugler, for the crime. Scott must flush out the killer among the denizens of local baseball, while dodging bullets from the spy world.

Carrying forward from book one in the Scott’s Tulsa series, SCOTT’S TULSA II – Spies, Ballplayers, & Murder, the summer of 1948 in Tulsa does not slow down for Wyatt Scott. Old troubles, new troubles, and continuing troubles push peril in his face. The summer gets hotter, and complications add to his unresolved Alaskan mystery.

Readers who want mystery cut with thriller and sprinkled with spies, SCOTT’S TULSA is your book! Len Deighton – Raymond Chandler feel in 1948 Tulsa.

Author note: The characters, story, descriptions, and dialog fit the time period of 1948. The story begins with a murder, and there is another. The first victim is a prostitute and the bordello and its madam are central to the story. There is moral ambiguity about revenge, justice, and the times.
