Found Object No.0038.26, New York City, Killing the Blues by Paul Johnson
Killing the Blues — Paul Johnson
Once a fiery 1960s radical, Casey has retreated to the Catskills, where his ideals are fading and his relationship with a fashionable family therapist is unraveling. Then he discovers a mutilated corpse, stripped of every identifying feature. The police have no leads, but Casey suspects the killer is one of their own: Roger Klugel, a celebrated local officer whose wife has mysteriously vanished. With no proof and the town firmly behind Klugel, Casey enlists a washed-up rock musician and a disgraced cop to pursue a justice the authorities seem unwilling to deliver.
An unsettling debut thriller, Killing the Blues is also a sharp portrait of the 1960s generation growing old: former revolutionaries scattered across the Catskills, some reinvented as prosperous yuppies, others still clinging to the rebellion that once defined them. Beneath its grisly mystery lies a darker question: what happens when the people who once challenged authority discover that authority itself may be the killer?
