Takin' Care of Business

A Brody James Mystery

“The storyline is entertaining and easy to follow. The character’s personalities are well developed and I laughed out loud several times reading it!” – Amazon Review of “The Boys Are Back in Town”

“A very good mystery with some very interesting characters. Can't wait for the next in the series.” – Amazon Kindle Review of “The Boys Are Back in Town”

The wait is over. Brody James and his partner, Bullock, return for the sequel to the Eric Hoffer Award for Independent Books nominee “The Boys Are Back in Town.”

Brody, and fellow officer Libby Evans, were looking for Roger. Instead, they found Tom Downing. Dead in a park.

Carson McCall was found shot in the alley behind the Booker Building. And Brody’s quirky neighbor was seen fleeing the scene.

The boys are back in town. And they’re “Takin’ Care of Business.”

A Look Inside

“Will this be a long story?” I asked, knowing the answer already.

To Bullock, there is not a short story. His stories are rarely linear. They’re like an audio presentation of that kid’s path from school to home in Family Circus comic strip.

“Why?” he asked.

“Well, if it’s going to be a long drawn-out story, we’ll drive around for a few,” I said. “But if it’s quick, and I doubt it will be, we’ll head straight to the station and you can finish before we get there. I’ll park and then we’ll go inside.”

“What if it takes longer than all of that?”

“I’m not sure,” I said as I scanned the area making sure nothing nefarious was afoot. “I guess it depends.”

“I mean, I’ll feel bad if I don’t finish and we have to sit in the car.”

“Will you?” I asked.

“Not really.”

“I can’t imagine it’ll be the first time you finished and then just sat in a car.”
