Synopsis

An actor stabbed and shoved off a balcony to his death. A haunted wild west stunt show. And murder... murder... murder.
 
Nod Blake, the cynical, wise-cracking private eye is back. An aging throwback to a bygone era of detecting on the mean streets, he's a dinosaur of a private eye who never got the memo he was extinct.
 
Once again, Blake has been dumped in the midst of murder most foul. He is psychically besieged by victims, begging him from beyond the grave to solve their murders. In the real world, he's flummoxed by vandals, an anonymous blackmailer and death-defying stunt men - and hounded by a homicide detective happy to pin the killings on him.
 
It's an all new murder mystery with a sly sense of humor, set in 1979 Chicago where a maniacal killer riding free on the range... is the good news. The third book in Doug Lamoreux's Nod Blake Mysteries series, MURDER CAN BE A MISTAKE contains grim murder and outrageous laughs, peppered with adult themes and language.

    This recording has been digitally produced by Ava Strong, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. FBI special agent Sofia Blake, with a Ph.D. in linguistics, can decipher any hidden codes, messages, or foreign languages the Bureau sends her way, finding patterns where others cannot and making her indispensable in tracking down the most heinous of serial killers. In Silicon Valley, when a brilliant software engineer is found dead in his office, the crime scene littered with lines of seemingly nonsensical code, Sofia must piece together the patterns to see what the engineers are missing—and stop the killer before he strikes again…
    
    “The plot has many twists and turns, but it is the ending, which I did not see coming at all, that totally defines this book as one of the most riveting that I have read in years.”

    In the village of Fairhaven—nestled between Washington state’s Bellingham Bay and the Cascade Mountains, home to writers’ retreat Pines & Quill—friends and family have gathered for the union of Sean McPherson and Emma Benton. Sean has been working with the FBI and local police to help solve crimes, particularly murders bearing the mark of crime boss Georgio “The Bull” Gambino. Emma, who has just learned to walk again, has begun to feel at home and hopes to one day raise a family. 
    But just as the festivities begin and corks fly, an explosion shatters everything, killing one and injuring others. From Bellingham to San Francisco and New Orleans, the chase is on to discover who’s dead set on ensuring the newlyweds don’t live happily ever after. 
    The writers currently in residence at Pines & Quill include a vineyard owner, a Bryn Mawr College professor, a special education teacher accompanied by her seeing-eye dog, and an intuitive who can’t—or won’t—identify the killer. Gambino has a knack for finding people in even the most inaccessible places to do his bidding. Could one of the writers be on his payroll?
