Ax & Spade conjures a world where chaos outstripped order by a wide margin and where the rule of law had yet to take hold: Bethlehem, Pennsylvania - 1870. The story takes us back to an unforgettable nineteenth century boom town and introduces readers to a brilliant but flawed detective named Kamp.When a local misfit is accused by a frenzied mob for a savage double murder, only Kamp, the city's first-ever police detective, realizes there's much more to the story. As Kamp digs deeper, it becomes shockingly clear that all three killings served a larger and even more chilling purpose. So goes Ax & Spade, the intense and powerful historical mystery from Kurt B. Dowdle.
