On a rain-soaked Friday in 1895, a single gunshot pierced the early morning air. A prominent Atlanta businessman lay writhing on a downtown sidewalk. He was a proud husband and father. An ambitious man, he worked hard to support his family against what seemed insurmountable odds. He would die within a few hours. Was it from his own hand? Or was he murdered? And if so, by whom? And why? A loyal police captain sets out to solve the case. But his efforts are thwarted by corrupt detectives, a complicit commissioner, attempts to lead him astray, and a sting gone bad. This is a fictionalized accounting of a true story, told in a literary style. Strong, idiosyncratic characters, a compelling sense of place, and a dramatic cliffhanger drive the plot to an unexpected end. These themes are overlaid upon a richness of historical detail.

Autorenporträt
MIKE COBB'S body of literary work includes both fiction and nonfiction, short-form and long-form, as well as articles and blogs. While he is comfortable playing across a broad range of topics, much of his focus is on true crime, crime fiction, historical fiction and psychological thrillers. Rigorous research is foundational to his writing. He gets that honestly, having spent much of his professional career as a scientist. Mike splits his time between Atlanta and Blue Ridge, Georgia.
