DOOM TOWN

Las Vegas, 1952.

The cocktails are cold, the mushroom clouds are hot, and somebody is getting away with murder.

Private investigator Alexander “Buster” Blade thought he was taking a routine missing person case until someone turned up dead in a swimming pool.

Now Blade finds himself chasing a trail of secrets across the Nevada desert—through divorce ranches, ghost towns, atomic proving grounds, and a model community built in the shadow of nuclear tests.

The deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes.

A scientist dies under suspicious circumstances. A reporter vanishes while exposing a government cover-up. Shoshone activists warn that the land itself is being poisoned. And somewhere beyond the barbed wire fence of Sector 9, a deadly experiment is about to begin.

As the countdown to the next atomic blast ticks away, Blade must uncover the truth before he becomes another casualty of the Atomic Age.

But in Nevada's doom towns, some secrets were never meant to survive the fallout.

DOOM TOWN is a hard-boiled mystery packed with Cold War paranoia, government conspiracies, atomic-age history, flying saucer lore, and the fast-paced pulp action of classic paperback crime fiction.

Perfect for readers of vintage noir and retro Cold War thrillers.
