If You Like Dennis Lynds Books, You’ll Love…
Walk A Black Wind is a popular book in the Dan Fortune mystery series that Lynds wrote. The book takes place in 1970s New York at a time when liberated young women are making it their home. One such woman is Francesca Crawford who is making a nice life for herself there at just twenty years old – until she is murdered. A man twenty five years older than her shows up at Dan Fortune’s office and gives him a large sum of money, much more than he usually charges, to find her killer. Fortune agrees to take the case and finds things to be much more complicated than he imagined.
Another good book in that series is called The Silent Scream. Fortune is having some trouble in his love life and to take his mind off it, he agrees to take a case to investigate a blonde woman who frequents a local French restaurant. It’s not long after his investigation begins that he is warned to run by one man and threatened by another. This case leads him into a world of violence and treachery that he’ll need to figure out.
