Politically Correct Murder, A
John Hagar
Attorneys from the Progressive Litigation Foundation have created judicial chaos while pursuing their own quirky notions of how society should be organized-and who should be rich. When a PLF organizer is caught in the middle of a vicious power struggle and murdered, Bill Cody is hired to find the killer. Cody, a disbarred attorney, is a private investigator who understands the inner workings of the PLF from painful personal experience. More lawyers turn up dead after Cody and his ex-convict partner begin investigating militant organizations such as the Baby Rescue League, and a shadowy prison gang known as the United White Line.
Review: "A fascinating read...engrossing. [Hagar's] first-hand knowledge of prisons and inmates was intriguing and lent authenticity to the story. The book is murder, mystery, and a peek into a scary near future."
-Ray Biondi, Ret. Homicide Lt. and co-author with Walt Hecox of All His Father's Sins and The Dracula Killer
"Think Orwell, Heinlein, and Spillane. Hagar spins a hardboiled and chilling yarn about a not-too-distant future."
-Dannie Martin, author of Committing Journalism: The Prison Writings of Red Hog, The Dishwasher and In the Hat
