β¦ Synopsis
The first book, Lightning at 200 Durham Street, took place in 1928 when Joel Franklin was a 17-year-old student. Since that time, Joel has graduated from the University of Western Ontario with a degree in Business Studies. But now, in the winter of 1932-33, the Great Depression is in full swing and the only job available is at his parents' grocery store in his hometown of Chaseford.
An innocent afternoon of skating in the country with his friends is rudely interrupted by the grisly discovery of a severed leg, the first of several gruesome remains. Joel and his best friend Jay, building on their previous experience as amateur sleuths, decide to join the Chaseford police as volunteer constables.
Led by the crafty Chief Petrovic, and with the assistance of Joel's mysterious friend Walter, the investigation unfolds a chilling tale spanning many years, one that twists and turns through Capone's Chicago, 1920s cocaine parties, and the mind of one very deranged killer.
Can the prominent Ontario psychiatrist Dr. Alfred Khryscoff help the investigators pin down their elusive quarry? More importantly, can he help Joel understand himself and his unusual powers? The air is thick with supernatural suspense in this, the second Joel Franklin Mystery, a truly original Canadian historical whodunit series!
