Alan Boltby is a highly successful Toronto corporate lawyer-and a twenty-four-seven workaholic. He remembers his father exhorting him to become all the man he can be. So he reconnects with his estranged older brother, James, co-founder of a Manhattan hedge fund. And he cajoles his former lover, now general counsel at James's company, into dinner. James surprises Alan, asking for help at the hedge fund. Alan is shocked to find insider trading allegations and two unexplained deaths, and turns investigator. But when the brothers take refuge at Crook's Hill Farm, their boyhood home, a horrific, long-buried family crime resurfaces. For ten days, Alan fights between protecting James and standing up for what's right-while saving himself from the family crime's noose.
Autorenporträt
After practicing law at a major Toronto law firm and a Canadian multinational, Peter Fritze is following his lifetime interest in writing suspense mysteries. In April 2014, he self-published The Case for Killing: two plans for murder collide against the backdrop of a fictitious Toronto law firm. And in False Guilt, self-published February 2015, long-ago involvement with murder stalks a lawyer from Toronto to Rome. Peter is self-publishing his third suspense mystery, Crook's Hill, in January 2018. It's the first in a series introducing Alan Boltby, a workaholic lawyer turned adventurer and investigator. But Alan's first steps outside his comfort zone land his fractious brother, a hedge fund founder, and Alan in insider trading allegations, unexplained deaths and a horrific, long-buried family secret. Peter has lived in Toronto since being raised in Dundas, Ontario.
