    About this series

    Bubba thinks his gravy train has finally come in when he's hired by the Ogletroops, to spirit daughter Margaret out of a new age compound called WOMB. It's hard to investigate a women-only commune when you're a man. But then nothing comes easy for "soft-boiled" private eye Bubba Mabry. When murder strikes at WOMB, Bubba is elevated from simple trespasser to number one suspect. But Bubba has suspects of his own. Could the murderer be Luna, the earthy witch who controls WOMB? Or could it be the stranger in the rattling truck who tried to run Bubba down?

      Introducing Bubba Mabry a tough, comical private eye who's happy to get thirty bucks an hour acting as a security guard for some celebrity. In this case it's the king himself, back from the dead and determined to keep a low profile - the one and only ELVIS. Seems some fan is harassing him and Bubba is hired to tail the guy who turns out to be a tabloid hack. But when two bodies turn up and Bubba ends up as the prime suspect, he turns investigator. It seems his alibi, Elvis himself, has flown the coop, leaving Bubba to the vultures. With a fireball brunette, a drop dead blond and tabloid reporters on his heels, he sets off to find the "king".

      Soft-boiled Albuquerque P. I. Bubba Mabry is way short on cash when pimp Sultan Sweeney, late of New Orleans, strolls into his office. Sultan is working the old Route 66, Central Avenue, and somebody's killing his teen-age whores on "The Cruise". The cops won't tell Sultan anything, so Bubba's his boy. Bubba's list of suspects includes a reverend, a councilman, even a cop or two. The killer could even be a deadly competitor who is also in the "love for sale" business. With Sultan and two rogue cops on his tail, and a snarling Doberman named Baby out for his blood, Bubba's got to catch the killer before the killer catches him.
