Publisher Description:

Start the series where it all begins. Volume 1 introduces Roger and Suzanne (and the author) in their formative years. Private detective Roger Bowman and scientist Suzanne Foster find themselves traveling through Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina to solve a baffling and grotesque murder case. Parts of a dismembered corpse are found on a rocky stretch of beach in Montevideo, Uruguay, apportioned equally between Memorials (which really exist) to the Graf Spee, a German cruiser sunk in World War II, and the Holocaust. Because of the murder victim's strategic location shared between two antithetical monuments, the Uruguayan press names her “The Ambivalent Corpse”. This fast-paced thriller is a suspenseful whodunit that features only clean language and no explicit sex. Available from Kindle Unlimited.
