But Dee swears her innocence, and Howie Rook believes her. A retired newspaperman with a detective&rsquo;s sixth sense, he will do whatever he can to prove her innocence. But he will find that asking questions can be just as dangerous as going for a walk in the dark.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV><i>Rook Takes Knight </i>is part of the Howie Rook Mysteries series, which also includes <i>Unhappy Hooligan</i>.</div>
