Synopsis: Two young women are attacked in their dorm room at the local college. The only motive seems to be that they played a reality/virtual reality game. At almost the same time Leonard’s bookshop is vandalized. Although these crimes don’t seem connected, Frank Nagler thinks they just might be.
Review: Set in the down-but-not-out city of Ironton, New Jersey, this rather hard-boiled cop story also examines the topics of violence on college campuses and nepotism within city departments. This is the second in the Frank Nagler series and shows the growth of the writer; it’s an enjoyable novel with a good ending.
“A Game Called Dead” is the second Frank Nagler Mystery, following “The Swamps of Jersey.” (2014), both published by Imzadi Publishing of Tulsa.
