COMING THIS SUMMER
A hard-boiled detective needs a hard-boiled daughter to keep him honest—and alive. It’s 1961 in Houston, Texas. A native son who lost the White House but gained the Senate gavel is about to put the over-heated and under-air conditioned backwater at the center of President Kennedy’s moon mission. But success may depend on P.I. Harry Lark and his twelve-year-old daughter Dizzy.
D. B. Borton teaches English at a Midwestern liberal arts college. She has published eleven mystery novels in two series, the Cat Caliban series and the Gilda Liberty series. As an academic writer she has published work on film, women’s ghost stories, and girl detectives.
They're finally here...
Remember those dour aliens from 1950s sci-fi flicks? They've had a makeover, and now they're back in SECOND COMING, a hilarious novel by D.B. Borton, author of the Cat Caliban and Gilda Liberty series. Taking aim at consumerism, the cult of celebrity, and the self-destructiveness of humanity, it nonetheless finds joy in the pleasures of basketball, dogs, and rock ‘n’ roll.
