KISS OF THE COBRA
2022 No. 8 in the John Bowers' Series
Blue Butterfly Sweet Sorrow
Babylon Blues City Serenade
Camelot Club Cold Kill
Pontiac Pirates Kiss of the Cobra
Police Procedural with Detective Sgt. John Bowers and the Portland, OR Central Precinct Rob/Homicide Squad.
​
There's trouble in Midtown—a rapist is on the prowl. Bowers is taken down, and his partner Sgt. Minnie Raye is on the hunt with a vengeance. The trail winds through city tower mid-listers to the losers on the streets with scores of their own to settle.
And in the thick of it, a midnight B and E adds a rape to one of their own and turns everything upside down. It's bloody crime, wrong turns, muddled evidence that stains the rep of the City of Roses until the homicide cops track down their suspect hiding in plain sight.
WHAT’S NEW WITH RAY BATES MYSTERIES
Home of Detective John Bowers Police Procedurals
Welcome to fellow crime fiction junkies and mystery fans. There are eight John Bowers' books that follow a progression in the lives of Bowers, his partner Minnie Raye and the crew at Central Precinct Rob/Homicide unit along with the Medical Examiner's staff and assorted bad actors who make it all necessary.
​
A number 9 Bowers book Rainy Day Rules is out soon. As Bowers' fans expect, there's plenty of forensics, criminal justice, realistic street life and steamy sex. Perfect recipe for a stormy night read.
