Location, Location, Location

High Crimes by Libby Fischer HellmannSo the release of HIGH CRIMES is only a month away. I’m getting excited – maybe you are too, just a little? To whet your appetite, I thought it would be fun to take a “Behind the Scenes” look at some of the locations in the novel, because Georgia doesn’t stay in Chicago this time around.


For those who don’t know or recall, this is the 5th Georgia Davis crime thriller. In it Georgia is hired to hunt down those ultimately responsible for the murder of Resistance leader Dana Baldwin fourteen months after the 2016 election.


 

 

 

 

 

Georgia’s investigation takes her to several locations this time. In Chicago I was finally able to set a scene inside the famous Green Mill Lounge. Long known as a place for great jazz, it was also a hangout for Al Capone.



Behind the bar is a staircase leading to some secret tunnels that provided a quick escape when the cops or Capone’s enemies were closing in.


 

 

 

 

Georgia also travels to Washington DC, and, as some of you probably know, that’s where I grew up. So I finally had the chance to describe parts of my “home town.” After you read it, I suspect you’ll know why I moved to Chicago.

For Goodreads Readers

Hi, Readers.


Many of you entered my recent Giveaway for Advanced Reader copies of HIGH CRIMES, my 15th crime thriller and the 5th Georgia Davis story. If you didn’t win a copy, I’m sorry. But you can still preorder a copy for just $2.99 from the retailer of your choice. After it’s released on November 13, the price goes up to $5.99.


I hope you’ll take a look at it. It’s set fourteen months after the 2016 election when Chicago PI Georgia is hired to investigate the murder of Resistance activist Dena Baldwin. It was a story, that once it came to me, I had to write. I hope you’ll like reading it. There are already eleven reviews on Goodreads, and most of them are, happily, positive.  Here’s more:


High Crimes by Libby Fischer Hellmann


How do you solve a murder when there are 42,000 suspects?


That’s the task facing Chicago PI Georgia Davis, hired to hunt down those ultimately responsible for the assassination of Resistance leader Dena Baldwin at a demonstration


fourteen months after the 2016 election. The gunman, on a nearby hotel rooftop, dies within minutes of the shooting.  As Georgia sifts through Dena’s 42,000 Facebook followers, she discovers that unknown enemies hiding behind fake profiles have infiltrated the group. She finds others who will do whatever it takes—including murder—to shield right-wing, wealthy elites. When Georgia begins piecing together the facts, relatives of both victims mysteriously disappear, and the danger escalates. Threats and bruises have never frightened Georgia, but she’s side-swiped by the sudden reappearance of the mother who abandoned her when she was a child. Can she survive an emotional family crisis at the same time she pursues killers whose only goal is to protect themselves?


I hope we can stay in touch. Feel free to follow me on Goodreads. I try to state up to date. And if you have any questions, be sure to ask on my profile page!

Finally, here’s a peek at the book trailer.

BLOOD WORKS

This terrific anthology came out today, and I'm proud to be part of it. Rick Ollerman edited, and he assembled a stellar lineup that includes Eric Beetner, Reed Farrel Coleman, Jen Conley, Libby Fischer Hellmann, Jess Lourey, Terrence McCauley, Stuart Neville, Gary Phillips, Jenny Milchman, Kristi.Belcamino, Duane Swierczynski, and many others.
The collection as a whole celebrates the theme of books and bookstores (and tubas, oddly enough), and it also celebrates the life of Gary Shulze, long-time owner of the Once Upon A Crime bookstore in Minneapolis, who died in 2016 of complications from leukemia. All proceeds from the collection will be going to the Memorial Blood Center, which helped Gary during his fight.
