By James Cowell

While searching for the killer, Detective Burton found that the redheaded secretary had had a secret life.George Irish was well-liked by all. While some of his closest friends knew he had an addiction to sex, there was one lover he told no one about.Ezra Smith was a part-time photographer. To become famous, he was looking for the perfect model: a woman with a beautiful smile and a gorgeous body. She also had to be good in bed. During his search, he preyed upon women that were not only financially strapped, but starved for romance as well.Set in South Centralia, a much overlooked locale on the outskirts of Columbus, Ohio, this novel delves into madness, illicit desires, and numerous affairs.Before MTV, HIV, the Internet, and cell phones, there was 1979. Herpes was in the news, and Vietnam was over. It was a time for smoking marijuana and waiting for Skylab to crash to the earth--which it did--one week after the Fourth of July fireworks on July 11.
