Publisher's summary

Thrill-a-minute crime fiction, infused with wry humor.

Restaurant owner and former professional baseball player Jake Longly is hoping for a few weeks of fun with Nicole Jamison in the warm Orange County, CA sun - the OC, baby. After that, they’ll be on their way to LA for the filming of Nicole’s sure-to-be-a-hit screenplay. On arrival, they discover that Nicole’s friend Megan Weatherly, a local TV reporter, has picked up an anonymous stalker. Megan downplays any real danger, but her new intern Abby, as well as Jake and Nicole, don’t agree. Bit by bit, as the harassment escalates, and the shadowy man invades Megan’s world, Jake calls in the big guns from back home in Alabama: Ray and Pancake. But, will Ray’s military black ops experience and Pancake’s technical skills be enough to expose the predator in time?

The stalker is no fool and likely has a predatory history. He makes no mistakes and manages to cover his trail completely. So, how do you identify and locate the untraceable? How do you protect Megan from a potentially lethal phantom?Suddenly, the sunshine and safety of the OC seem more façade than reality. Jake and crew must punch through that façade and dig into the dark world of celebrity stalking. The clock is ticking.

Could be biased

This was a great story and a cleverly demented conclusion to the mystery. It was carefully designed and played out. Listening to the narrator, I was amazed at the various voices. Hard to believe the California and Alabama accents, as well a both male and female, older and younger voices were all done by the same person. Someone I know well; my son. Good job!
