Produktbeschreibung
A five-year-old unsolved murder, a U.S. senate candidate with a past to hide, and an alleged art forgery that rocks the art world: All pieces of a multi-dimensional puzzle facing Detective Veronica Brilliant and the women of the Monet Detective Agency. Hired to solve a cold-case murder, Brilliant, a transgender former Marine MP struggling with her own sexuality, faces an unrelenting succession of threats from an unknown source, raising the suspicion that her own client, the murder victim's grandson, could be the killer. Embroiled in a controversy arising from the sale of a famous work of art, Joan Miro's The Reaper, the grandson, Hamilton Blethen, fires Brilliant, adding to the suspicion. Driven by her own demons to find the murderer, Brilliant searches for Blethen's estranged mother, who might have information about the murder and her son's innocence, sending Brilliant down a dangerous path that leads to Magnolia Kanaranzi, a Boston media magnate in the midst of a campaign to become the next Senator from Massachusetts. Propelled by her crazed quest for political power, Kanaranzi unleashes the might of her wealth and influence to keep the investigation from interfering with the election. As polls close, puzzle pieces fall in place, but the final picture is not the one Brilliant expected, realizing neither her client, nor the Senator-elect from Massachusetts, are who they appear to be. *** The Sower is the second book of the Chimera Chronicles. It is available, along with the first book in the series, The Reaper, at your local bookstore, online or at www.robjungwriter.com. ***

Autorenporträt
Born in the wine country of California; grew up in a beautiful, little Mississippi River town in Wisconsin; educated in the Minnesota state university system and Harvard Law School, Rob Jung now lives the writer's life in suburban St. Paul, Minnesota, with his wife, Kathy. A newspaper writer for seven years while getting his undergraduate degree at Winona State University, Jung has practiced law for 47 years. He began working on his fiction-writing craft more than a decade ago. A life-long student of history, geography and religion, Jung has traveled in every continent except Antarctica, and his stories often find their origins in historical events from countries outside the U.S. Jung also lists among his "credits": inventor, entrepreneur, gourmet chef, master gardener, fishing guide and storyteller. His best work: three grown children, four grandchildren and one great grandchild. He has written four novels, the first two of which are safely tucked in the back of a drawer so as not to injure either reader or the literary world. His third novel, Cloud Warriors, is published by John Hunt Publishing (UK). The Reaper, his fourth novel, is currently in publication with an expected release date of June 1, 2019. He has also had nonfictional work published in newspapers, legal forums and periodicals of limited distribution. *Rob Jung is the pen name of Robert W. Junghans. He also writes limericks and tells stories under the name "C.J. Rakham".
