The Black Spanish Flower
In book two of the Memphis M.O. Series, marauders stage an attack on Graceland to steal Elvis’s favorite jumpsuit, The Black Spanish Flower. Amos Grey’s heroics there set him on a quest to earn a spot on the Memphis Police Department’s TACT Squad. Why does Lieutenant Rick Munro stand in his way?
Grey seeks to root out the truth about his father, a cop who was killed when Amos was an infant. The trail takes unexpected turns, all the way back to the infamous assassination in 1968 at the Lorraine Motel. Can he unravel the mystery and catch up to the charismatic Elvis tribute artist, who plans to don The Black Spanish Flower to a final cataclysmic event?
