Fat Man Blues: A Hard-Boiled and Humorous Mystery (The Tubby Dubonnet Series Book 9)

Read Fat Man Blues: A Hard-Boiled and Humorous Mystery (The Tubby Dubonnet Series Book 9) Storyline:

The hornets’ nest of Cuban political feuds, police corruption, government agents, and old men with secrets to hide that Tubby stirred up in Night Watchman is swarming with lethal intent. The surviving founders of a 1960s Cuban revolutionary organization have goaded the younger generation of revolutionaries into pursuing the Latin American politics professor who wants to get his hands on the “Papal Scrolls”, the organization’s prized archives. He believes the papers document the existence of a cell of ardent plotters whose below-the-radar activities touched upon the Bay of Pigs invasion and even the Kennedy and Oswald assassinations. The archives were briefly in Tubby’s possession after he stole them, but the younger generation stole them back. The old guard, aggrieved by Tubby’s interference and determined to leave their mark before passing on, have Tubby in their sights, and they’re coming at him from every direction, including through his new ladylove, Peggy O’Flarity. Meanwhile, an axe murderer is rampaging through the city, and it could be Tubby’s new client, Angelo “Fat Man” Spooner. Along the way, Tubby gets to feel good about the proper administering of justice in a case or two.
