Book excerpt: Denise "Midge" Sumpter and her partner Jake Leon work to solve a baffling murder. An unsavory character suspected of selling illegal drugs and sex trafficking is found murdered in a room in Midge's grandmother's motel, The Shady Oaks. Stabbed, garroted, and smashed on the head, he lies dead in a pool of blood with a loaded revolver, unfired, on the floor nearby. Suspects include a local barbecue chef and restaurant owner whose favorite cooking tool is a machete, a fugitive methamphetamine producer who sports a fully automatic AK-47, a drug user who buys from the local producer, a divorcée who lives in a swanky gated community, and a missing girl who may have been trafficked by the deceased. Frequently shot at, Midge and Jake drive a Dodge Challenger patrol car with several bullet holes from trigger-happy suspects. Full of colorful characters, colorful language, and exciting car chases, "The Motel Murder" will keep you turning pages until the final page.
