Watermeloned: A Mystery Sci-Fi Novel

By Desmond Shepherd

Don't. Get. WATERMELONED!

First came the meteor.

Then came the murder.

Leon Dweller's life is in shambles. His wife left him, he drinks too much, and his career as a private detective has met a dead end.

Late one night, Leon witnesses a strange meteor. Unlike the usual passing spark in the sky, this one moves slowly, methodically, and finally disappears. He wonders what it could be.

That same night, a gruesome murder happens in town. An unlikely person asks Leon to find the killer. Reluctantly obligated, he agrees to do it.

Convinced that the meteor and the murder are connected, Leon's investigation leads him to unexpected answers. Solving the case is one matter. Learning the implications of his role in it could impact all of humanity is quite another.

Will he be able to follow through on the consequences of what he discovers?

Combining the suspense of a murder mystery and the intrigue of sci-fi with some humor for good measure, this novel by the author of Imaginary Me unveils a puzzle of a story that ends nowhere near where it begins.
