The Maker of Widowmakers' Arm

(2022)
(The third book in the Ptolemy Lane Tales series)
A Story by

 
 
Ptolemy Lane faces two problems.

A severed arm found on the roof of the highest building in Georgina’s Town sends Ptolemy Lane on the hunt for the rest of the body. It neatly distracts him from the fact that Diya Sandor, former ship captain and new town resident, has left him.

But when both issues intersect, the fallout can’t be ignored.

The Maker of Widowmakers’ Arm is the third Ptolemy Lane space opera science fiction story by award-winning SF author Cameron Cooper.

Praise for the Ptolemy Lane Tales:

Hard-boiled detective meets Mos Eisley cantina

I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of the world building.

A lot of potential for rich, nuanced story telling in this world.

I look forward to seeing more of Ptolemy Lane and others from his world!

I felt like I was in a black and white sci-fi avant-garde movie. Humphrey Bogart is in the background somewhere, smoking a Camel cigarette, or maybe a future Sherlock Holmes.

I have truly enjoyed Cameron's other books, but this one is so very different from all the rest.

Ptolemy Lane is one of the most unique characters I've seen in awhile!

I thoroughly enjoyed this intriguingly quirky story.

It's a short read and packs a lot of action and plot twists into a quickly moving storyline. I couldn't put it down!

Very interesting, beautifully written, complex story.

Very interesting and imaginative, it's like Cameron has already been there and lived that!

Original and entertaining.

Snappy action with unpredictable characters in a captivating world!
