Ransom Game

Book 2 of the Benny Cooperman Series

by Howard Engel

It’s February in Ontario, and Benny Cooperman’s private investigation business is as frozen as the landscape—until Muriel Falkirk arrives at his door desperate for help: her boyfriend, Johnny Rosa, has vanished. Ten years ago, Rosa was involved in the kidnapping of an heiress; he served his time, but the ransom money was never recovered, and now that he’s out on parole, he has disappeared without a trace. As Cooperman begins his search, he quickly realizes he isn’t the only one hunting for the missing man.
