Murder, sex, Scotch, and ice cream. But, not all at the same time! A despicable crime, and a delectable pursuit through the streets of Madison and the University of Wisconsin campus.With the seemingly impossible murder of his uncle in a campus landmark, Chocolate Shoppe owner Phil Bardo inherits a lot more than a run-down detective agency. His uncle's secretive assistant and Phil's key Chocolate Shoppe employee play crucial roles in Phil's quest to unravel the mystery behind his uncle's death and bring the real murderer to justice. Whipsawed between developing relationships with the two strong women, Phil struggles on-the-job to learn enough about private investigation to clear his own name, find his uncle's killer and keep all of them alive in spite of unrelenting conspiracies. This is the first book in the Madtown Mysteries series.
