Lightning at 200 Durham Street

It's 1928, Prohibition has ended, the Great Depression is just around the corner, and The Jazz Singer--the first talking movie--has just been released. But there's trouble in the small Ontario town of Chaseford.

At a remote cabin in the woods, seventeen year-old amateur sleuth Joel Franklin and his friends have stumbled across a crime too big for Chief Petrovic and his constables to handle. As the criminal investigation expands to neighboring cities, a wild electrical storm rips through the peaceful little community, unearthing fresh mysteries and leaving destruction in its wake.

In this, the first Joel Franklin mystery, early 20th century criminal investigation crackles alongside supernatural intervention in a truly original Canadian historical whodunit.
