Blood Foam: a Lewis Cole Mystery (Lewis Cole Series)
“Traffic was heavy for this time of the morning, and I was stuck at a red light, with the evil Volvo behind me, the young female driver waving at me with one finger extended. A quick left onto Lafayette Road and then a quick right past the Common, and I’d be at the Chronicle.
