When North meets South, it's murder.
Chicago entrepreneur, Peter Reynolds, is barely thirty and
has sold his import/export business for seven million dollars. He is at loose
ends, not terribly moral and more than a little spoiled to a lavish lifestyle.
All that he has come to know and cherish is about to change when he gets an
invitation to attend the funeral of an ex-girlfriend, Diane Cottwell, in Archer
Springs, North Carolina.
From the moment he steps off the plane, things take a
downward spiral. Beginning with the rental car from hell, he finds himself
embroiled with moonshiners, good-ole-boy politics and a sociopathic killer.
When Diane’s seven-year-old son inherits the family farm, 875 acres of prime land,
Peter has his hands full outsmarting conniving relatives and a greedy
businessman, all with their eyes set on getting the property. And a love
starved country girl and the businessman’s lustful wife offer him plenty of
temptation.
Diane’s death that initially looked like a home invasion
gone wrong starts to look more and more like a planned murder. Then more people
die and Reynolds finds himself on the trail of a ruthless killer whose next
victim may be Diane’s son.
Claws of the Griffin
is a roller coaster ride of mystery, mayhem and murder, Southern style.
“When rich northerner, Peter Reynolds, heads
to North Carolina for the funeral of an old girlfriend, he gets more than
expected, including murder. This is a must read for anyone who likes their
mysteries served with a southern flavor.” --Rick Bylina, Author of One
