Strong Medicine: A Western Mystery Series -- Steve Hockensmith, Paperback

SHERLOCK HOLMES MEETS GILDED-AGE TEXAS IN THIS WICKEDLY FUNNY MURDER MYSTERY WHERE THE CURE MIGHT JUST KILL YOU.

The A.A. Western Detective Agency rides into Galveston in 1894 Texas, a city of elegant Victorian mansions and dark waterfront secrets, when a wealthy businessman burns to death in his own warehouse under far-too-convenient circumstances.

With Big Red and Old Red Amlingmeyer on the case, Old Red's obsession with Sherlock Holmes is finally put to the ultimate test. Their client's household is crawling with suspects: a brilliant female scientist, an eccentric would-be snake-oil salesman, a volatile socialite, and a charismatic "healer" whose devoted followers will do anything she demands.

As blackmail, madness, and murder tangle beneath Galveston's gleaming surface, the detectives must separate miracle from menace before the killer delivers another dose of strong medicine.

With threats closing in from every direction, can the Double-A Western Detective Agency smoke out the truth before the next victim goes up in flames?
