The Silent Salesman
ByPublisher Description
After his slowest summer ever, struggling and desperate private eye Albert Samson places an ad in the local paper, offering his services at a bargain price. Instead of new business, he gets an eviction notice.
But his luck seems to change when Dorothea Thomas calls with an unusual tale of woe. Her brother, John, a chemist and pharmaceutical salesman, has been in a coma since a lab explosion seven months ago. Dorothea hasn't been allowed to visit her brother in an experimental wing of the hospital—and she needs Samson to find out why. The case gets him tangled up with the FBI and leads him straight to the black heart of the pharmaceutical industry, where secrets only hide more secrets.
The smart-mouthed midwestern detective who "is always good, wry company" returns in this witty crime novel in the critically acclaimed Albert Samson series (
).

About Michael Z. Lewin
Michael Z. Lewin is the award-winning author of many mystery novels, short stories, and radio plays. He is best known for two series set in and around his hometown of Indianapolis. Albert Samson is a wry, low-key private eye who neither beats people up nor owns a gun. Leroy Powder is an irascible Indy police lieutenant who repeatedly "helps" his colleagues to become better cops. Both character also appear in Lewin's short stories. The main characters from the two series and other Indianapolis titles often appear in lesser roles in other books.
Since 1971, Lewin has lived in England, currently in Bath, where his city center flat overlooks the nearby hills. It also overlooks the front doors of the Lunghi family detective agency, a newer series of novels and stories set in the historic city. Visit him online at www.MichaelZLewin.com for more information.
