About this series
The road to Hell is paved through Indiana.
When a funeral calls, paranormal detectives Arturo Brooks and Edward Smith pack their physical and emotional baggage and take a road trip to Smith's hometown. Mistake #1.
On a tip, they begin investigating a multidimensional business conglomerate. Mistake #2.
The detectives soon find themselves in a parallel universe that's even worse than their original destination. One with a lot more leg warmers.
Can Brooks and Smith survive the 1980s a second time, in a world where giant rats, doppelgangers, and their own worst instincts rally against them? Can they do it on a diet of nothing but chain restaurant biscuits? They'll need to if they're going to find their way home.
That's assuming they still have one.
About the Series
From the mind of award-winning author* Martina Fetzer, the Brooks & Smith series brings fast-paced science fiction and fantasy with an emphasis on humor. It follows two detectives and their makeshift family on a series of increasingly absurd adventures. These books are often silly, sometimes dark, and never child friendly.

Time Travel: What Could Go Wrong? Paranormal detectives Arturo Brooks and Edward Smith hated time travel before they ever laid eyes on a time machine. Now, some jerk has gone and invented one, and the consequences go beyond breaking the timeline. This time machine renders anyone who dares to use it immortal. Plenty of people would love to get their hands on technology like that. Racing against several clocks, Brooks and Smith team up with a terrified Puritan and a moon-dwelling hipster to stop increasingly bizarre time travel exploits from tearing their lives and reality apart, before it's too late… Or too soon.

Phenomenal Cosmic Power...Itty Bitty Moral Compass With paranormal activity at an all-time high, Arturo Brooks and Edward Smith decide to stop working for others and form their own paranormal detective agency. They're not the only ones. The market is saturated, and they struggle to find even a single client. That changes following a chance encounter with a genie that doesn't grant wishes so much as do whatever the hell it wants. The detectives' reality is completely upended—for better and worse. Better for them. Worse for the world. Brooks and Smith have to set things right, but their attempts at doing so are complicated by a genie-thieving venture capitalist, self-sabotage, and a newer, stupider detective in town. Some wishes really can't come true. About the Series The Brooks & Smith series presents a satirical take on paranormal detectives. It is often silly, sometimes dark, and never child friendly.
