Red aces
A trio of short crime stories follows the unassuming investigator J.G. Reeder as he disentangles schemes of deception, embezzlement, and a murder accusation. One tale revolves around a bank clerk's jealous intrigue and an oddly cashed cheque, another exposes a serial confidence trickster, and a third traces how a wanted man slipped past an elaborate cordon. Each narrative relies on ledger scrutiny, household searches, careful interviews, and quiet deduction, building compact, puzzle-like plots that reveal hidden motives and resolve tangled secrets.
