[Under Construction]

The Ambivalence of Good and Evil, a philosophical-detective thriller

by M. W. Clark, Ph.D. of 80,000 words.  Copyright 2006

                                                                           

“Where’s the dog?”  A simple but essential question that had a complex and tragic answer.  It leads to the end of a series of killings that no one had linked together.  An elderly movie producer shot in the head and killed while walking his dog a warm L. A. night.  They had found the producers body but not seen the dog again.  The Beverly Hills cops haven’t got a clue who or why it was done; another cold – case dead-end to them.  The dead-end cases usually found their way to Philosophical Investigations, successful L.A. Security and Detection firm ran by ex-academic Philosopher, Richard F. Marlow, Ph.D.   Asking the right question and picking the right target was Marlow’s  strengths.  Southern Californians’ ethical androgyny provides examples of the worst sides of humanity; the child abusing priest, the corrupt lawyers, accountants, politicians, the committed megalomaniac; America condensed and compacted into one area.  This condensation of humanity had brought him to Southern California from Ohio, that and the weather.
