Grant's Dilemma

About this ebook
Jim Grant is a police reporter with a problem. Torn between his job as a reporter and his role as a concerned citizen, Grant has got some tough decisions to make as he goes undercover to help the police nab Carlos Medrano, one of the most notorious drug dealers in North Carolina.
Soon, Grants investigation takes him down to the Florida Keys, where he discovers that Medrano has a diabolical plan that could have international consequences.
Written with much of the same wit and style that became his trademark when he wrote a weekly newspaper column, Gibbs takes his readers on a semi-autobiographical, semi-Walter Mitty ride that the whole family can enjoy.

Jim Gibbs is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin and has a bachelor’s degree in journalism. During his 20-plus years in the newspaper business, he has won numerous writing awards and has covered everything from major sporting events to political conventions to the police beat. A native Texan, Gibbs began his career in Cambridge, Md. as a sportswriter but quickly established himself as a diverse writer who could write about highly complex criminal cases as easily as he could describe a low-scoring pitcher’s duel. He spent more than seven years covering the police beats in Arlington, Texas and Mesquite, Texas and has published more than 1,000 newspaper stories and 300 columns. This is the second of three books that Gibbs plans to publish in 2004. His other two works include Time Out – A Collection of Newspaper Columns from 1987-1999 and a collection of inspirational biographies that he has co-authored with Dallas Cowboys Chaplain John Weber. Maria Villa designed the cover for this book and is a 2005 graduate of Glen Rose High School in Glen Rose, Texas. She has won numerous college scholarships for her artwork and was selected as one of the top 100 high school artists in Texas in 2004. This is the first of two book projects that she will be working on in 2004 as she will also be doing the sketches for the collection of biographies that Gibbs and Weber have written. Talented beyond her years, she plans to study art in college and to continue to improve her skills as an artist. She has two younger sisters and one younger brother and is the oldest daughter of Arthur and Lisa Villa of Glen Rose, Texas.
