The Unlikely Sleuth: a Novel Mr. Edward J. Bertz

No one believed him. Who would? After all he was only 15 with a wild imagination fueled by growing up in the era of Al Capone and John Dillinger. Bucky fancied himself a young Dick Tracy who had to prove a gangster was hiding out just outside the village limits. His search for convincing clues was hampered by an internal struggle with guilty feelings over a sexy girl friend. Was there such a thing as pure love? So he had two daunting searches that pushed him into the path where death lurked and torture screamed. A pale, skinny, "orphan" girl reached out with a helping hand. Was that enough?
