Corrupt Control

About the Book

Mike and Myra receive a worrisome letter from an old friend, suggesting he may be depressed and considering suicide—but not at home. He plans to go back to the Berkshires, where he had nostalgic memories of happy days with the love of his life. The duo make the now familiar trip west on the Mass Pike and connect again with the Pittsfield police detectives who have, over the years, become allies and good friends. Unaware that the plot instigating a rash of similar “suicides” has roots in Mike’s past history in Pittsfield, he finds himself more deeply involved and endangered than his planned intervention might warrant.
