She has Oscars on her shelf, money in the bank . . .and a knack for solving murders. It’s been a few years since someone put a real bullet in a prop revolver, tricking Charlotte into killing her Broadway costar, but because she found the culprit herself, her friends drop her a line any time they need a sleuth. And Charlotte doesn’t mind; compared to the stress of life as a Hollywood legend, catching criminals is a breeze. On a cleanse at a friend’s health spa, Charlotte is put on a draconian regimen of health food and clean living. So when a fellow visitor overdoses on barbiturates and drowns, Charlotte suspects foul play. Healthy living is all well and good, but nothing gets a girl’s blood moving like a nice, old-fashioned murder. For fans of Hollywood, Broadway, or old-fashioned glamour, Charlotte Graham is as refreshing as an ice-cold gin martini. This book is a delightful reminder that even the most cunning killer can’t keep a good actress down.

The plan is to rob a train! Are they nuts? Wait. Listen.Hit the Amtrak early morning train carrying used casino dollars to the Federal Reserve in Philly to be thrown in a furnace and replaced with fresh, stiff, green bills cashiers can snap like castanets when paying off winners.The heist isn't a Western 'B' movie with galloping horses and six-shooters charging through the exits on the Atlantic City Expressway to grab a cash box from Old Dusty at the reins. It's easy pickings. Well-used money with little security. The Monday after the Fourth of July weekend, wearing Salvation Army wardrobes, they pull it off, clean as a polished martini glass held up to the light.No horses were used, but whoa!When they split the loot it's short from the big payday promised by their leader, the Bodyguard. He suspects someone is holding out. There's a brief discussion and the next thing you know one of them is dead, found in his burning jitney and his house robbed. Another is targeted. The Limo Guy, a friend of Tommy Palmer's.Tommy's daughter, Kelli arrived unannounced in Atlantic City for the Labor Day weekend. She'd been summoned by Detective Gino Lombardi, one of Atlantic City's finest and Tommy's pal, to see if she could pull her Dad from the doldrums that overwhelmed him after the murder of Carla, a up and coming jazz singer he was protecting."So," she asks when she finds Tommy in the Saratoga Bar on late Friday afternoon, "Is this my Dad, Vietnam veteran, ex-Honolulu street cop who used to ride the big ones at Sunset spending the rest of his life on a Saratoga stool?""There's worse places," he joked and slid off the stool for a big hug. For the weekend he squires her around, bicycling, surfing, and visits to the area's good restaurants, then drops her at Philadelphia International with a promise to get back to living like his old self; helping people in a jam. That's what Tommy does.The first thing he runs into is the Bali Hai Enchantment Spa murders. Tommy's friend, the Limo Guy and his Asian girlfriend who he promised to help with an immigration problem are shot-gunned running out the rear of the spa.The next thing is a slab of a man known at The Hammer, a casino bodyguard, a bully as big and thick as an old Convention Hall wall, who, no surprise, likes to hurt people.Tommy suspects this wouldn't be fun.

Book excerpt: By 1966, Hot Springs, Arkansas wasn’t your typical sleepy little Southern town. Once a favorite destination for mobsters like Al Capone and Lucky Luciano, illegal activities continued to lure out-of-state gamblers, flim-flam men, and high rollers to its racetracks, clubs, and bordellos. Still, the town was shaken to its core after a girl was found dead on a nearby ranch. The ranch owner claimed it was an accident. Then the rancher was found to be the killer of another woman – his fourth wife. The story begins when 13-year-old Cathie Ward was found dead after horseback riding at Blacksnake Ranch on the outskirts of Hot Springs, Arkansas. Frank Davis, the owner of the ranch, tells authorities Cathie’s death is an accident. He claims her foot caught in a stirrup and she was dragged to her death despite his pursuit of the runaway horse. People who know the 42-year-old skilled horseman don’t believe his story, and soon rumors of her rape and murder begin swirling around town. The rumors reach a crescendo after Davis viciously guns down his fourth wife and mother-in-law in broad daylight outside of a laundromat. Davis is arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Soon after, Hot Springs authorities re-open the investigation into Cathie Ward’s death. Snake Eyes is the first book to examine this decades-old murder and cover-up, and the only in-depth account of the man who would become the town’s most notorious villain. Featuring personal interviews, crime scene records, court documents, and Davis’ own prison files, author and lifelong Hot Springs resident Bitty Martin reveals the true story for the first time.
