A new Last Laff Mystery from Agatha Award-nominated
author Alan Orloff
Comedy club owner and
occasional performer Channing Hayes thought the comedy
business was tough, but it's a stroll in the park compared
to politics. When he and his business partner Artie attend a
congressional campaign event for their friend Thomas Lee's
nephew, masked thugs storm in and break up Lee's restaurant
with baseball bats. The candidate's people insist that the
police not be involved, so Lee asks Channing to investigate.
As Channing searches for answers, he finds himself immersed
in a corrupt world of payoffs, gangs, illicit affairs,
blackmail—and murder . . .
