Description
It should be happy days. It's the Roaring Twenties and The Cupid/Archer Detective Agency is open for business. A little girl's body is found in a shallow grave right in the middle of the city's large park. Private investigators Florian Flix and Phalen Archer are at their wits end. A bungled investigation by the authorities may make it impossible to find the child's true killer. Archer is itching for some real detective work, but the only paying case involves a hysterical socialite who is determined to dig up the dirt on her husband, the financial wizard, Henry Lime. But either Henry is a saint or he covers his tracks perfectly. World War 1 still haunts both men. Flix is still tormented by horrendous nightmares, and Archer is doubting his faith. Archer turns to Father Tom Benjamin, only to find that the good Father may be hiding plenty of secrets of his own. The Cupid/Archer Mystery Series: 1. Beastly House 2.
