Spiesis a 'dime novel' featuring the early years of homicide detective Joseph Barszcz, JB to his friends. The year is 1950 when JB joins the Hartford County Police force. Getting crosswires with Lt. Wilson early in his tenure earns JB 'voluntary' temporary duty with the New Haven police force -- where he distinguishes himself, to Wilson's dismay. Returning to Hartford, JB soon finds himself enmeshed in a murder investigation. The lead homicide detective requests that JB be reassigned to the homicide division. The murder is just the tip of espionage at Pratt and Whitney. Is the theft of plans for the B-36 engine upgrade corporate espionage, Rolls Royce developing a new turboprop engine, or Soviet Cold War espionage?
