Description

A local museum staffer is murdered during a theft of seemingly valueless artifacts in Key West. A broadcast news boss persuades an ex-investigative reporter, Milo Bird, to find out who committed the crime. As Milo delves into the case, he uncovers a puzzle that appears to track back to the early days of sound recording and a long-forgotten connection between Key West and Thomas Edison. Milo calls upon the unique talents of his league of drinking buddies as they work together to unearth an astounding secret concealed since the time of Prohibition. Danger escalates as Milo races against unknown killers to be first to uncover a hidden object that has silently awaited discovery for nearly a century. The author, Dave McBride, draws on his knowledge of local lore and lifestyle in this story. As Milo navigates the complex web of clues, he must wonder if a prize worth a fortune is worth risking his life. With its unique blend of mystery, history, and local colour, Lock, Stock & Peril is a gripping tale that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
