2013 Rainbow Awards Submission: Marshall Thornton - Boystown 5

Boystown 5, Murder Book by Marshall Thornton

In the fifth book of the award-winning Boystown mystery series, it’s fall 1982 and Chicago is gripped by panic after five people die from poisoned Tylenol capsules. Amid the chaos, the Bughouse Slasher takes his eighth victim, this time striking close to private investigator Nick Nowak. With the Chicago Police Department stretched to its limit, Nick takes matters into his own hands. But what will he do with the Bughouse Slasher once he finds him?

“Thornton’s crisp, terse style and smart, cynical observations make for a refreshing change in the current crop of tough guys and private eyes.” — Josh Lanyon, author Adrien English Mysteries

Oh, I didn't know there was a number 5! I've read all other in the series. Excellent books, they really give you the idea of that period.

BTW: I'm sorry I don't comment more often, but there are so many books involved that sometimes I just can't catch up! The same applies to the biographies.
