The Mervin Gardens Murders

By Irv Sternberg

The elderly occupants of an independent living luxury complex in Denver are dying at an unusually high rate. The coroner says all the deaths have been natural--from heart attack to accidental drowning in the complex pool. But when Leah Lamont's gentlemen friend is found dead after leaving her apartment, she fears a killer is at large. She persuades her friend, stand-up comic Izzy Brand, an occasional amateur sleuth, to investigate. Despite the Covid 19 pandemic, Izzy agrees a serial killer has targeted five residents and disguised their deaths as natural. He is assisted by his friend, Denver Detective Carlos Collins and his astute devoted companion, Anita Bender. While closing in on the serial killer, the pandemic threatens to alter his life. Nevertheless, he continues to perform at his comedy club, regaling his faithful following with hilarious humor, even as he ventures into virtual comedy.
