A Shug’s Place Novella…
It’s the late ’90s, and Shug Barnes, now working with Rick Scanlon’s private detective agency, takes on the unsolved brutal murder of an Air National Guard sergeant. Faced with equally dangerous military and civilian suspects, Shug must determine who he can trust—maybe with his life. Meanwhile, the past threatens to reveal truths best left buried.
