When you've carried a PI ticket for as many years as I have, you're likely to have run up against plenty of different kinds of trouble in plenty of different places.It might come in the form of a runaway Illinois wife whose flight ends up making her a target for far worse than what she was trying to run away from ... or it might be a couple of former partners in the bodybuilding racket whose competitiveness triggers a jealous rage neither of them ever saw coming ... or maybe a high-priced call girl whose client list turns into a hit list when the obsession of a highly dangerous man turns lethal.In laid-back rural Nebraska, a thick late-night fog can hold more danger than even the spooky conjuring of an overly imaginative young boy ... or a planned hike through a stretch of remote badlands can turn into a life-or-death struggle with a predatory psychopath ... and a country western band on the brink of elusive stardom might find their success blocked yet again when deep, simmering secrets from within its members suddenly and destructively boil to the surface.You don't have to take my word for it. I've opened up my files and laid bare some of my most memorable cases spanning the past thirty years. Get ready to discover that there are "mean streets" to be found everywhere-not just in the bowels of a big city.
