The Blue Door

About this book

"Welterweight boxer Eddie Cero is out of the ring with an injury, but he still can't bear to see an unfair fight. In a Philadelphia alley, he steps in on two punks beating up an older man - and the guy, a private detective, buys Eddie a round and offers him a part-time gig. Eddie could use the cash, though he doesn't think much of the profession. But after a few days on the job Eddie learns he has a knack for snooping - and then stumbles on a cold case involving the front man for the Excels, one of Philadelphia's best soul acts. Eddie starts investigating the case out of curiosity, but the missing singer's talented sister draws him deep into a violent, twisted story of betrayal and intrigue, power and passion - all set to the beat of rock and roll." "David Fulmer brings us to the vibrant city of Philadelphia and the early days of its famous soul."--Jacket.
