Description

An African American U.S. Senator from Wisconsin gives a rousing speech at his party's national convention held in his hometown. When he's gunned down on a quiet Milwaukee street the following morning, Eric Rhodes survives what looks like a simple, yet high-profile hate crime.

But nothing is simple in FBI agent Cole Huebsch's life, not his relationships and certainly not the cases he works. Cole, FBI analyst Li Song, and reporter Michele Fields won't stop searching for the truth, even when the most sinister and powerful forces in the country align to shut them down.


When Cole faces and defeats several cold and calculated attacks on his life and the lives of others he cares about, it only strengthens his resolve. But how far are Cole and his team willing to go when the evil they face is above the law?

Reviews

"It's a joy to follow Special Agent Cole Huebsch through the streets of Milwaukee in this fast-paced thriller. Kluesner exceeds the high standard he set with The Killer Sermon to deliver an exciting, humorous and thought-provoking story with a phenomenal sense of place." - Archer Parquette, Milwaukee Magazine


"In quick strokes, Kevin Kluesner vividly sets the scene-present-day Milwaukee-and introduces the protagonist, FBI agent Cole Huebsch, and the attempted political assassination he is tasked with investigating. The prose is strong and rhythmic, guiding the reader page to page as the story rapidly unfolds. Cole Huebsch is a character readers will want to meet again and again." - David Luhrssen, Shepherd Express


"Kevin Kluesner's second novel, The Killer Speech, intertwines politics, a complex murder investigation, and deftly written prose to create a must read mystery." - Melissa Collum, Morris Newspaper Corp.
