<DIV><B>The job was supposed to be simple, but in this shady midwestern town, nothing is as it seems </B><BR /><BR />Hard-living private detective Karl Craven didn&rsquo;t ask for trouble when he arrived in Paulton, Missouri&mdash;but trouble found him anyway. First it was his partner, Oke Johnson, shot in the head by a silenced rifle. Then it was the femme fatale Ginger Bolton, who took him for a wild ride his first night in town. But it&rsquo;s Penelope Grayson&mdash;the sultry blonde whose uncle hired Craven to shake her loose from a local cult&mdash;who takes the prize.<BR />&#160;<BR />Penelope calls herself a Daughter of Solomon, a member of a group mixed up in everything from viticulture to gambling and prostitution. As Craven gets closer to the cult, he realizes that it isn&rsquo;t the town&rsquo;s only danger. To solve the case of Oke&rsquo;s murder and free Penelope from the grasp of Solomon, Craven must also tangle with a crooked police chief, a treacherous lawyer, and a ruthless gangster&mdash;all primed to bring him down unless he can outwit them first.<BR /></DIV>
