From Edward M. Krauss, author of HERE ON MOON and SOLOMON THE
ACCOUNTANT, his latest novel: A STORY OF BAD. Investigating the
murder of the owner of a sportswear factory in Queens, New York,
Detective Terry Stans determines that the victim knew his
assailant. The dead man's workers and bereaved family are all
suspects. June Replyn, a reporter covering the business side of the
fashion world, is assigned to write how a small company survives
the death of its inspirational leader. During interviews at the
factory June is slipped a note from someone claiming to know the
identify of the murderer. The reporter meets the detective. Stans
is stuck. The case is going nowhere, and he believes the fashion
writer has a better view inside the company. Terry encourages June
to share information with him, hoping fresh eyes will see something
he hasn't. But she doesn't tell him about the note. In the midst of
his investigating and her reporting they start dating. Their
relationship raises questions about confidentiality, loyalty to
one's employer, professional ethics. Both of their bosses caution
them about the dangers to their careers raised by this situation.
And there they are, in bed. The tale is designed to intrigue the
reader with two intertwining stories, the mystery of the murders
and the unexpected love affair. During the course of the novel the
reader visits the worlds of police investigations, newspapers and
their editorial policies, drug smuggling, and the Cambodian
experience in America.
