Summary
Detective Bill Drey has seen enough of this city to know two things: how to ask the right questions — and how to listen to the silence that follows.
When a call pulls him to the Adolphus Hotel in the middle of the night, the scene is clean. Too clean. A locked door. A note. A merchant from Chicago dead on a Persian rug with a gun in his hand. The patrolman calls it obvious. Drey calls it a problem.
Because in Dallas, obvious is always the first layer. The one something hides under.
What begins as a single death in the finest hotel in Texas pulls Drey into a web of cotton money, Klan pins, and the kind of civic order that runs on silence and small favors. The city is building — cranes on the horizon, oil money changing the skyline — and men with clean hands and good suits will do a great deal to keep it that way.
Narrated in Drey's own voice — unhurried, precise, and bone-dry — Murder at the Adolphus is the first book in The Harwood Street Chronicles: a noir series set in the real streets of Dallas, where the Adolphus still stands on Commerce Street and Harwood is still just one block over.
For listeners who like their jazz slow, their bourbon neat, and their detectives honest in a city that isn't.
