After a hiatus to allow his damaged shoulder to heal, Patrick Moses is put in charge of an investigation into the lynching murder of a young black boy. No one in the mostly-Irish section of town knows anything; Chicago's black community is horrified. The same day, Moses receives news from his former home at Holy Trinity Orphanage that a young female resident has disappeared. Fear is she has been abducted. The aldermen John Coughlin and Hinky Dink Kenna return to the precinct to complain about the murder of Albert Butross, the owner of Lustland, a prominent brothel. The alleged killer, a prostitute, burned Butross to death in his own bed. Moses tries to keep the three cases separate, but the twists and turns in each case make them seem very similar.

Autorenporträt
John Sturgeon is a retired insurance agent from Winfield, Illinois. He has been married to his wife Mary for forty-three years. They have three children and five grandchildren. Bad People is John's eighth published novel-five from the Levee District Series and two other books in the Milton Series. An "extremely" mediocre golfer, his kids dubbed him "The Master of the Egg" because they liked his omelets better than any restaurant.
