Long before the Summer of Love, Pride parades down Market Street and the fight for marriage equality, San Francisco in 1953 was all about the Red Scare, FBI investigations, yellow journalism run amok and the ladies who play mahjong over tea in the unexpected heiress. Private detective Nick Williams is called in to see his lawyer and friend Jeffrey Klein, whose mystery client under contract to Metro, was just arrested at the Kit Kat Club on Polk Street but somehow got off with a bench warrant. Jeffrey wants to know who in the Police Department worked things behind the scenes for the star of the upcoming blockbuster. It was raining then. Meanwhile, a late night phone call from his estranged father sends Nick into a tailspin, and a family secret, along with a lot of other things better kept hush hush, are all splashed on the front pages of the Daily News. It ain't pretty. In the end, for Nick and his lover, a strapping firefighter named Carter Jones, it's actually the beginning of a whole new way of doing business. The Unexpected Heiress by Frank W Butterfield is book one in the Nick and Carter series and is available now on Audible and iTunes.
