Synopsis/Details: 

When the activities of a rumpled old school homicide detective and his young female rookie partner threaten the re-election of a big city mayor, they are unceremoniously demoted to Petty Crime. It is hoped this move will keep them out of trouble and out of the news. Unfortunately for the mayor's political ambitions, this is not what happens. As the detectives dutifully look for lost dogs and missing electrical appliances, they still find ample opportunity to use excessive force and questionable methods in their pursuit of justice. This lighter, but still very deadly, sequel to PRICELESS 'stars' the same mismatched Izzy and Mako characters - A May and December crime fighting duo who ultimately and begrudgingly learn to trust and respect each other.

The Writer: John Hunter
As a child in the coastal low country of South Georgia, I often heard the truth stretched and embellished as an innocent pastime by people who spoke Ebonics, Geechee and Cracker. So, as you can clearly see, my storytelling is not entirely my fault. I was raised wrong. After graduation from college, I served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Central America and later worked in construction management, big ticket sales, commercial graphics, and as a packaging design consultant. I now live under the shade of a large oak tree in Central Florida and enjoy telling a wide variety of slightly dark and quirky stories with a dash of humor. My dystopian horror Baby Soup won the 2013 Florida Independent... Go to bio
