From the publisher

When Dead Folks was published, Newsday raved, Jackson makes the hard-boiled form look as if he thought it up himself last week.... (Dead Folks) offers both deep reader satisfaction and anticipation over Mulheisen No. 7. Well, the wait is over. Mulheisen is back, and Man with an Axe establishes beyond a doubt that Jon A. Jackson is one of the sharpest, wittiest mystery writers working.It's springtime in Detroit and Detective Sergeant Fang Mulheisen has settled in for a period of repose -- he thinks. But as the ice breaks up on the river, a headless body floats into town. A young kid arrives with an E-mail cartoon message addressed to Mulheisen depicting a woman being murdered again and again. And an alluring young historian suddenly wants to know all about Mulheisen's now-dead mentor, Grootka. It leads Mulheisen on a scavenger hunt into modern jazz history, the Detroit police archives, and Grootka's notebook diaries, stashed over the years with different people. As the trail gets hotter, Mulheisen gets closer to a twenty-year-old unsolved mystery -- the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa -- and the mob begins to close in on him.
