    Murder at the Lowdown
    Author

    Philip Pak

    Philip Pak is a retired NYC policeman who grew up in Brooklyn, New York, before it was expensive and trendy. Back then, it was full of colorful characters: pool sharks, bookies, some real and some wanna-be wise guys. A lot of the characters in his stories are based on them. A great deal of time is spent researching poisons and weapons on the internet. Hopefully, the FBI won't be knocking on his door.
