The Researcher

By James E Brentar

"My husband's dead!"

This was the last thing researcher Bill Task expected to hear during his nightly telephone interviewing sessions.

He never thought his attempt to help Mrs. Wall would drag him into a murder investigation with roots going back over fifty years. But did she really poison her husband? The police think so, andsuspicion soon falls on Bill as well.

His research skills and knowledge might not be enough to solve this murder. He must look beyond his sixty-plus hours per week of work and research his way through a secret stash of money, a stolen identity, a witness with autism, questioning and suspicion from the police, a bar owner with possible mafia ties, a felony from fifty years ago, and a possible killer on the loose. Bill's research takes him all over southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois, all while he tries to keep serving his regular business clients. He must solve the case before Mrs. Wall goes to trial, and he must learn to trust again after years of shutting people out. Otherwise, he may not only lose his business, but also his life.
