Shadows of Sin

Senator Gerald Albers is at the top of his game politically when mob-like characters blackmail him to the tune of more than a million dollars in order to keep the politician’s secret sex life out of the media. Albers, dreading the worst outcome, and unwilling to involve the police, hires private eye and former Chicago cop, Cleve Hawkins, to track down the threatening miscreants.

Sewn with threads of deceit, extortion and distinctive wise-guy type villains—including the seedy, murder-for-hire thug, Concho—Shadows of Sin takes Hawkins through a gauntlet of danger with twisted turmoil, infidelity and murder.
