Synopsis

Hearts Aren't The Only Thing Broken In The World Of Country Music...

Music City P.I. Harry James Denton has a deep, dark secret that's dangerous to admit in Nashvegas...

He's not a huge fan of country music.

But when rising country music star Rebecca Gibson is found beaten to death, a heap of damning evidence points to her ex-husband and Harry's pal, Slim Gibson.

Short of cash, as always, Harry digs into the case and discovers the dark history of a marriage made somewhere way south of Heaven, somewhere deep in the cutthroat heart of the country music business, where deceit, betrayal, passion and vengeance are not only sung about... they're lived and died.

And because nothing in Harry's life is ever simple or easy, he's also got another situation to deal with. His girlfriend--who's also the Music City coroner--is being held hostage by a group of whacko cult religious fanatics in armed Winnebagos who don't want the body of their leader's wife autopsied.

For Harry James Denton, it's just one damn thing after another in this nail-biting, page-turning thriller that's the next installment in Steven Womack's award-winning, best-selling Music City Murders series. Nominated for the PWA Shamus Award, Way Past Dead will grab you and take you through so many twists and turns you won't be able to put it down until the last page.

You'll love Womack's writing. Readers have compared him to John D. MacDonald, only with a meat n' three-sized dose of smart-ass on steroids.

"A deft, atmosphere-rich novel: smart, funny, and filled with a sense of wry heartbreak. Steven Womack's Nashville stands out..."
---James Ellroy, New York Times bestselling author of L.A. Confidential
