{"product_id":"2940157214692","title":"The Death of Lois Janeway","description":"Lois Janeway rose from her aisle seat in row twenty-seven and reached up to the overhead storage for a carry-on suitcase. Her figure, outlined by her tight-fitting light green sweater over tan slacks, caught the attention of several nearby male passengers. One looked at another, smiled, and nodded approval.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFour months later, and just five miles from the Akron-Canton Airport, Lois Janeaway's point of arrival ...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo bodies, bound at the arms and legs, fully dressed in suits and ties lay in front of Police Lieutenant Daniel Albert Finnell on the shore of Turkeyfoot Lake. The awkward bend of the arms and legs at elbows and knees, along with the faded remains of bloodstains on the clothing around shoulders, elbows, crotches, and knees, told him they had died rather painfully. The faces, covered in tight clear plastic, were pasty white from immersion in the water and disfigured beyond recognition giving their heads the look of packaged cauliflower extending like stumps above the shoulders of the dead bodies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen Paul Steiger arrived in tranquil Akron, Ohio, he was determined to put the violence of Iraq behind him. But after helping a wealthy jeweler out of a ticklish situation, Steiger becomes a target of the local police--and the mafia, who have been looting the company he works for. But his problems have only just begun. When Lois Janeway enters his life, he embarks on a desperate search for answers to keep him off death row that leads him into a love affair with the beautiful--and murderous--Angie Scarpachi, and then to a deadly conflict between her mafia Capo father and Colombian contract killers in Carrizozo, New Mexico ... but it is a horrific showdown with Angie's psychopathic sister that really catches Steiger off guard.","brand":"Next Century Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47114951786736,"sku":"2940157214692","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940157214692_p0.jpg?v=1764104151","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940157214692","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
