Dead Men Can't Murder

Book excerpt: At 10 AM, Tom Coleman saw a man he knew was dead. By 10 PM, he was dead and the man walked free. When Mike Airlie, former colonel in the army and Vietnam vet, arrived at the dorm, Tom's body was hanging cold from the rafters. He wouldn't be the first or last soldier to take his own life after the horrors of 'Nam, but something didn't add up. As Mike picks apart the clues, he realizes that the death is not at all as it seems. To complicate matters, he also has to fight a pervasive stigma against suicide in the veteran community. Racing against the clock before the killer strikes again, he draws on all of his law enforcement connections, but the deeper he digs, the more dangerous it becomes. Dead Men Can't Murder is the gripping second story in the life of Mike Airlie and the sequel to Murder in Old Main.
