Book 1 Tom Stone: A Nitty Gritty Christmas
Available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, iTunes Detective Tom Stone doesn't rest on holidays. In this detective novel, Christmas in Los Angeles takes us to the nitty-gritty dealings of a small-time drug lord, boys living in a foster care group home, and tainted candy. Reviews "I liked the fact that 'Nitty Gritty Christmas' was set not in glamorous Beverly Hills or Malibu, but in the prosaic suburbs of the San Fernando Valley. If you're looking for a light, quick detective read, get nitty-gritty." "The strength of this story is the characters, especially Tom, the divorced cop/dad, enduring the holidays without losing all optimism." "The copy flows more smoothly and the descriptions are more subtle and real than in most detective novels I've read. The foundation has been laid and I hope the success of Nitty Gritty will lead to a series with longer books, as I enjoyed this one." |
Redemption. Betrayal. And Murder. It’s just a Sweltering Summer Night in Los Angeles until Detective Tom Stone takes action.
Two murders and a cocaine trail threaten dreams of riches for Anthony Angelino, owner of the High Tide marijuana dispensary in East Hollywood. Once arrested by Detective Tom Stone on suspicion of smuggling cocaine, the courts set Angelino free and offer a second chance. But the drug cartel that he tried to double cross has a different idea and when Stone’s high school-age daughter is found browsing in the High Tide, Stone starts tracking Angelino and uncovers the ruthlessness of betrayal. As Stone fights for justice and confronts Angelino’s attorney, he finds himself enamored with her strength and beauty—and admires her principles of right and wrong. Healing his fractured family and keeping Los Angeles safe make for a long, hot summer. |
