Good news for Roger and Suzanne fans! The detective couple returns in a new novella, “The Bodies by the Beltway”. Set in the Maryland suburbs north of Washington, D.C., this story combines mystery with science. Roger and Suzanne witness a murder while they are waiting in line at a gas station to fill their tank. Roger is eventually pulled into the case when the widow of the victim hires him. He gets caught up investigating a series of murders in several of the suburban communities while Suzanne visits the National Institutes of Health to do a research project. A contemporary sniper seems to be recreating the historical Beltway sniper attacks of 2002 in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. At least that’s the FBI’s theory. Roger’s one-man investigation takes him into a complex world of defense contractors, intelligence agencies, and the military in his search for answers to whodunit and why? This fast-paced romp brings our detective duo to a new locale, but murder is seldom far away from wherever Roger and Suzanne go.
