"Robert Campbell is terrific" raves the Boston Globe.**


Jimmy's feathers aren't easily ruffled, but when bullets start flying , the committeeman flies into action. Soon he's searching for a killer in the middle of a rough-and-tumble Windy City campaign. And entering a political dark alley that leads to a secret that could shatter Jimmy's world.


Now the Edgar-winning author sends amateur sleuth Jimmy Flannery on his eleventh-and most baffling-case to date. This time the feisty committeeman of Chicago's notorious Twenty-seventh Ward lands smack in the middle of a political hotpot that nearly cooks his goose....


Nothing stops Leo Lundatos from getting what he wants---not even a call girl murder scandal and a stretch in the clink for fraud and abuse. Planning to rebuild his power base with a run for alderman, the once powerful congressman asks Jimmy Flannery to run for ward leader of the famous Eleventh: The Mayor's Ward.


Jimmy's not so sure this step up the ladder is a good idea. Already new pals and old enemies are crawling out of the woodwork. And even before his family convinces him to go for it, he's got his hands full.


A gaggle of militant right-wingers is up in arms to ban "offensive" books from the public schools. If they're outraged now, just wait till they get a load of Jimmy's potpourri campaign staff:


Sada Spisselman, his aunt and a renowned socialist, is set to run the show; lipstick lesbian Janet Canarias, his closest ally, is to be chief strategist; and ex-cop Mabel Halstead will be his right-hand man. In fact, Mabel was a man before her sex change. The final ingredient is principal backer Maggie Lundatos, Leo's gorgeous, soon-to-be ex-wife, who's got a thirst for power and an eye for Jimmy. All this on a ticket in a largely Catholic ward.
