{"product_id":"2940013965133","title":"Holy Murder","description":"Zane Yancy had been a cop for a long time. After being ambushed and shot, he was forced into retirement where he retreated to a bottle and self-pity. Successfully clearing Margaret Fontenot of  murder (Small Town Murders) introduced the retired cop and reluctant detective into a new career ... when pushed by his old antagonist Percy Gaspar or led into it by Megan Tarascon, a lovely ex-school teacher with whom a budding romance is budding.  A late night (or very early morning) phone call from Percy triggers his next case. \"Holy Murder\" takes place in an, to Yancy, the alien land of Chicago. A friend of Percy's, John Winters, has been arrested for murder; a lovely student nurse, Mary Wayne,  is being blackmailed by the mob and a minor mob lieutenant is after a chunk of money he thinks one of the characters is coming into. A thugs corpse disappears from the funeral home and its believed by some that that body is a part of a church foundation but as Yancy digs deeper into the case he finds the tentacles of the mob have reached into virtually every aspect of society; including the medical, political, and law enforcement of the bustling city. Murder, prostitution and blackmail prove to be no hindrance to the mobster's greed ... only a soft-nosed .45 slug can handle many of the problems.  Mature reading. Contains profanity, violence, prostitution and graphic sexual activities.","brand":"Jim Haycraft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47152703734000,"sku":"2940013965133","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013965133_p0.jpg?v=1763598038","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013965133","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
