The Black Messiah Murders — Shelly Waxman

This is the first of the Sam Cohen Case Adventure Series. Sam's a lawyer and he gets involved in a cover-up while with the U.S. Attorney's Office in Chicago. Sam refuses to become a participant, is labeled a "turncoat" by the Establishment and becomes a lawyer for the little guy. Mel Pollard is a bartender, secret mystery writer, and Sam's confidant, Val Darensburg is his faithful secretary. One day beautiful Serena Wilson stops by Sam's office with a ruse to gather information about her father. That starts the fast paced trouble. They are after her and because she has come to him, they are after Sam too. William O'Neal, the FBI's informer is an enigma. Is he a Black James Bond or Fred Hampton's Judas? Either way, he did some very wicked things. Also, there are the passionate interlockings of the various characters. Sam is the horniest of them all. "The Sam Cohen Case Adventure, Number 2--"Piranhas on the Loose""--is available at iuniverse.com and other online bookstores.
