Review “MAHONEY’S CAMARO” By Michael J. Clark

Who doesn’t love to nibble on a bit of supernatural suspense while sipping their crime fiction? Michael J. Clark’s sophomore novel, “Mahoney’s Camaro,” provides just that and a bit of humor as well. Set in the Canadian summer of 1985, Steve Mahoney is a mechanic turned tow truck operator who dreams of one day owning his own shop. His life takes a turn for the macabre when he backs his tow truck into a Winnipeg crime scene to aid the police in yanking a vehicle from the Red River. It’s not just any vehicle, however, but a 1967 Chevy Camaro, a cherry sight that gets his mouth watering.

He soon acquires the Chevy for himself, after getting it for a song at a salvage auction. Only there’s one problem, the ghost of the woman found dead and handcuffed to the steering wheel won’t leave the vehicle. She wants to know who did her in and she needs Mahoney’s help to find out. Add in the fact that her killers want the Camaro back and Steve’s lucky day at auction turns into a nightmare. In order to rid his dream car of its spectral baggage and drive off into a crime-free life, our reluctant mechanic has to solve the mystery of her death or be killed in the process.

Gritty, compelling, and unique; Clark weaves a tale of car-loving woe brimming with sharp dialogue and criminal intent, and fuel injected with just the right dose of horror.
