Publisher's Summary

A pair of strong hands choke the final breaths out of singer Etta Childs. When Miami police fail to turn up a lead, her brother Wendell Childress turns to private investigator and former police detective Ben Sheen.

It quickly becomes apparent that the investigation could have been more thorough. Meanwhile, Sheen’s own dead ends keep piling up. He’ll have to go up against both the police and political powers if he has any hope of solving the crime.

Sheen’s got a hunch why they don’t want him to make progress. One more body will fall before he’s got it all figured out, and he’ll have to work fast to crack the case open before his unexpected new lover is caught in the cross fire. 

Can he find the answer in time?

Find out in Some Are Shadows, a classic detective story by David Sayre. It’s the first published novel for the independent filmmaker and Miami native who brings his town to life in a homage to pulp fiction and gumshoe detective novels of the past.
