About this ebook

Collected together here are the second 3 stories in the Detective Jimmy Delaney series:
The Scent of the Crime
Detective Jimmy Delaney finds himself involved in yet another murder. He knows something smells in Barnstow, but can he use that to find the killer?
Killing Them Softly
In a strange series of coincidences, young women start dying in Barnstow. Detective Jimmy Delaney doesn't believe in coincidences - and he's doubly suspicious when his irresistible nemesis Diana hires him to solve the murders. But can he stop the killer before they strike again?
Hard Times
Why are these things always so hard?
Johns are dying in Barnstow. It was bound to happen eventually, in a city where legal prostitution is a big part of the tourist industry, but not so many so fast. And of course, if there are dead bodies in Barnstow, Detective Jimmy Delaney isn’t far away.

If you enjoy a little confused, crime-laden mayhem with a smattering of sci-fi and plenty of human frailty (and some redemption), Detective Jimmy Delaney is for you.
(all 3 stories are also available separately)

The first three Detective Jimmy Delaney stories ("In a Flash", "Mixed Signals", and "The Right Idea") are also sold separately AND contained in Broken Down: Detective Jimmy Delaney Collection #1.
