The explosive case that mixes blood & oil
A missing heiress. A town full of secrets. And the truth that could destroy them….
March, 1933
Tired of mundane office work, Laurel Robertson is ready to throw herself into her next investigation. With her Pinkerton team at her side, she’s heading to Oklahoma for what should have been a simple case. It doesn’t take long for the crew to realize there’s far more on the line than they could possibly imagine.
It’s up to them to secure the signature of heiress Thelma Bow. Unfortunately, she hasn’t been seen in years. If the residents of the town of Blacksburg know how or why she has maintain an enigmatic existence, they refuse to say.
Even more surprising, they’ll stop at nothing to keep these secrets buried. With their lives on the line and danger closing in, can Laurel and her crew unravel this conspiracy before it’s too late?
Somewhere between the places and characters of O Brother Where Art Thou and the gritty tales of Raymond Chandler is the adventures of Laurel, Tom and Major Goodall. Seen mostly through Laurel’s eyes, it’s a twist on classic PI stories of yore.
