A Place of Fog and Murder

By T.E. MacArthur

A Place of Fog and Murder -- Second Edition



A Gumshoe in High Heels -- Lady detective Lou Tanner needs to cement her reputation to survive in a man's job, but the gorgeous client offering her a new case has brought her more than his tales of woe. Ruthless gangsters, suspicious cops, and a desperate blackmailer all manage to gum up the works at every turn. Gun in hand and wits at the ready, Lou is in a fight for her life.

Noir meets Dieselpunk in this twisting tale of 1935 San Francisco. From the corrupt power of its fashionable ultra-rich to the merciless reach of its dirty underworld, deadly secrets hide behind the thin veneer of propriety and a thick wall of fog.

From the charmingly deranged mind of T.E. MacArthur, author of the paranormal thriller The Skin Thief, comes a bold, new take on the hard-boiled detective, femme fatale, and art deco science fiction. A Place of Fog and Murder is MacArthur's salute to Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, and the effervescent Myrna Loy.
