Dead Beat: Odd-Couple Detectives, High-Stakes Crimes, Unbeatable Team

A murder that hits all the wrong notes. A detective duo that’s anything but in harmony.
When a break-in at a storage facility leads to the gruesome discovery of a drummer impaled by his own drumsticks, Detectives Comrade Flynt and Noah Steele are thrust into a crime scene as bizarre as their partnership. Flynt, an eccentric loner with a sharp mind but no social skills, clashes at every turn with the straight-laced Steele, a man of few words and many rules. As they dive into the seedy underbelly of the local music scene, they’re faced with more than just dead ends and red herrings. The deeper they dig, the more tangled the web becomes—a bitter band rivalry, cryptic lyrics, and a dark obsession with fame.
But time isn’t on their side. As the body count rises and the killer stays one step ahead, Flynt and Steele must put their differences aside before the city’s next encore is a bloodbath. Can they crack the case before their tension boils over? Or will this case strike a deadly chord that breaks them for good?
Dead Beat will keep you turning pages, laughing, and gasping, as a twisted crime tests the limits of an oddball detective duo on the verge of discord.
If great detective series like Monk, Holmes & Watson, Slater and Norman Mysteries by P.F. Ford, or The Campbell and Carter Mysteries by Ann Granger are your cup of tea... Then Flynt and Steele are your kind of detectives!
