    In this novel of nine closely related episodes, we join Crip and Henrietta, as unlikely a detective duo as ever hit the streets. Crip and Henrietta aren't your typical California private eyes. For one thing, Crip's real name is Tom Bateman. His sometime sidekick with body piercings and spiked green hair, Henrietta, calls him "Crip" because he's in a wheelchair. When she isn't mocking him, Henrietta grows marijuana, hangs with jailbirds, and brings in cases that reek of trouble - and weed - at first sniff. Henrietta's idea of a favor? Well, a couple of crazed fighting dogs need a home. In these episodes, we watch Crip and Henrietta's relationship grow as both characters struggle to bridge chasms of bitterness and mistrust. The private eye business in California hasn't gotten this kind of a reworking since Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler planted their gumshoes onto these mean streets. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Rick Boski and Goose Gordon are small-time crims who met 20 years ago in jail in Perth, Western Australia (in the Dave Warner novel Exxxpresso). After serving his time Rick fulfilled his dream to open a prison-themed cafe (Cafe Inside) and has been extremely successful over the intervening period. Goose has done well working for mining companies and both have been on the straight and narrow.But now there are two flies in the ointment: Former jailbirds Taco Bill and Pineapple Pete who have not gone on the straight and narrow, and who are demanding Goose uses his knowledge of alarms to help them heist an expensive oil painting from a private home.Declining is not an option, so Goose turns to Rick for help. Rick comes up with a solution.They will get a fake painting done that looks just like the painting that is going to be stolen. They will then steal the real painting first, replace it with a fake painting that Taco Bill and Pineapple Pete can happily head off with. Then they will replace the real painting and nobody will be any the wiser. It sounds like a simple plan but a love-sick artist and a vicious guard dog lead to a very smeared palate. ungekürzt.

    An exciting new Western in the style of AH Holt, Alex Cord, and Bruce G. Bennett filled with action, adventure, and plot twists such as GP Hutchinson, Robert Vaughan, and CM Curtis! This is a book that is filled with the bodies of dead bad guys! Jake Timber encounters a preacher-cum-bounty hunter who has killed the wanted man he was trailing. Quickly, Timber discovers the preacher is more than he claims to be, as together they dispatch the wanted man's brothers who have come to avenge him. Now, instead of one bounty, they have four and decide to split them equally. Together, they take their bounties into the nearest town of Crooked Creek to collect the reward. During the ride to town, the preacher claims he is only hunting bounties until he has enough money to build a church, but something about the man doesn't sit right with Timber. Upon reaching town, they are drawn into a landgrab scheme involving the local sheriff and his gang of rustlers. Timber and the preacher become hunted men in Crooked Creek and must work together to keep from becoming two more victims of the crooked sheriff and his gang. The only hope they have of avoiding being killed by the sheriff is to gain the trust and cooperation of the local townsfolk who have, in the past, been reluctant to place themselves at risk. After a night of quietly killing several of the sheriff's men, Timber and the preacher find a couple of witnesses and some banking records that serve to convince the townsfolk to back Timber and the preacher against the sheriff. In the final showdown, Timber and the preacher lure the sheriff to the town's main square. It's nonstop action and intrigue. Rustlers and jailbirds, good men against bad men, good versus evil and a surprising ending. Be sure to ride along with Jake Timber as he rides the dusty trail in search of justice for wanted men. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ken OBrien.
