Red Shirt (Miami Jones Private Investigator Mystery)

A call from the past. A debt to be repaid. Thanksgiving is about family, not fun. _________________________________ RED SHIRT: Imagine SPENSER FOR HIRE meets JOHN GRISHAM’S BLEACHERS. _________________________________ Miami Jones is enjoying the warm breeze of fall in South Florida when he gets a call from his past. His high school football coach has fallen victim to a financial fraud, and not only has he lost his nest egg, but seemingly also his will to live. Miami must travel back to the town of his childhood, a place of memories both happy and sad, to try to make good on a debt that he knows he can never truly repay. He won't just face his demons—he's up against Connecticut high society, a growing band of Russian gangsters and an FBI agent who might send everyone to the big house. Sometimes the hardest cases are the ones closest to home. Series praise: "...strong, unstereotyped, and engaging..." Kirkus Reviews "a well-balanced mix of intrigue, dry humor, and wit..." Manhattan Book Review "Robert B. Parker meets Carl Hiaasen." - Bookbub "A five-star romp by one of the best mystery writers around." - Charles Ray Reviews “Stiff Arm Steal is a rollicking good read.” - San Francisco Book Review ______________________________ Dear Reader, If you love a good beach read, or a book that makes you feel like you’re relaxing on the beach even when you can’t, Miami Jones might be for you. Readers say they love the relatable but oddball characters, the tropical locations (although this one takes Miami away from his usual locations and into a New England fall) and a good dose of mystery, without all the usual gratuitous sex and profanity. If James Patterson, Stuart Woods, Carl Hiaasen, Tim Dorsey or John D. MacDonald are among your favorite reads, then Miami Jones might be right up your alley. I hope you give him a try. You might just gain a new buddy or two. Cheers AJ ______________________________
