Sturgis Wager

Ralph Sturgis sees what others miss. A city newspaper reporter with a gift for the impossible, he tackles crimes that baffle the police and captivate his readers. When a case lands on his desk, Sturgis must untangle a web of deception where every witness has something to hide and nothing is quite what it seems. His weapons are observation, instinct, and the instinct to get the story before anyone else does. The city becomes his hunting ground, and the truth his only prize. Edgar Morette crafts a lean, satisfying mystery that proves the clearest eyes often belong to those simply watching from the margins.
