Claws that Catch: A Chance Novak Investigation

A slaughtered billionaire. A trail of black slime. An infamous hunting trophy that may hold the key… When Chance Novak - professional detective and amateur mystic - investigates the brutal slaying of a timber magnate, signs point to something spookier than simple murder. If he’s going to catch the killer before they strike again, he’ll need his dark arts expertise, his vast array of hoodoo relics, and his niece, Nora, who just moved to town with no idea of what she’s walking into. Nora left Las Vegas looking for a fresh start in life, but not this fresh! Before she can unpack, Chance enlists her as his new apprentice. Now she’ll have to navigate eccentric locals, witchy tourists, and her uncle’s self-destructive tendencies to keep her head above water…and free from beastly clutches. In the tradition of off-beat detective stories like Twin Peaks, The Yiddish Policemen’s Union, and the Dirk Gently novels, CLAWS THAT CATCH is a twisting ride through mysteries and misunderstandings, pitfalls and possibilities, and a cavalcade of genuine oddballs. Welcome to Adowak, Nora. You asked for it…
