Shortlisted For The Best Mystery Book Of The Year By The Forward INDIES Book Of The Year Awards!
Message in a Bullet, my foray into the shadowy world of literary noir, is the first in a series of novels based on the same principal character.
Raymond Mackey is a struggling crime writer. His friends call him Mack. But friends are in short supply these days. Mack’s thirty years as a homicide detective came to the kind of abrupt, ignominious end that tends to make friends dry up and blow away.
