Susan Wingate's debut novel, OF THE LAW, is available for purchase today. Her story, much in the classic style of an Erle Stanley Gardner mystery, is set on the fictional town, Thirsty Cove on Dahl Island.
(PRWEB) May 3, 2007 -- Susan Wingate's debut mystery novel, Of THE LAW, tells the story of Harvey Flemings, Police Chief on small Dahl Island. His life becomes embroiled in a maze of deceit, adulterous encounters, bribery and murder -- a couple of them. Failure to bring to justice the corrupt Leona Malouf (the wealthiest woman in the community) colors Harvey's every movement. Despite an impermeable legal fortress she has surrounding her, Harvey vows to end Leona's run of terror. Doing so, he enters into a world of sinister thought. The very element he's fought against his entire life grabs hold of his moral collar and will not let go. Will he win his fight against evil? Or, will he be destroyed? Of THE LAW takes a look at the darker side of humanity.
