The Peacoat — G. William Parker

A package appears on Rick Morgan's desk ... the content a mystery. What, if any, is the connection to the twenty million dollar death claim investigation Rick put to bed eight months ago? Has another player come to light missed in the first investigation, or is someone playing a game? But if only a game, why do the FBI and the Russians want to play? The question remains-who sent it and why? With the help of Vince, a retired Seattle homicide detective, Rick is determined to find the answer and in doing so a bizarre puzzle begins to emerge. But discovery usually brings more questions than clues especially when the pieces are scattered from Seattle to Vegas to LA showing five murders with common links spanning a nine year period. Rick knows there is more to the puzzle than the murders and so begins his journey to find, and fit, all the pieces. And in the process he finds something very unexpected.
