About the Book

Hardboiled L.A. Detective, Sebastian Roark is assigned his toughest case yet, when a priest with a shadowy past is found slaughtered in the confessional of a Catholic church. Everyone is a suspect in this crime noir as Roark comes to terms with his Catholic past, and a few theories as to who could possibly kill a priest. Perhaps, a young alter-boy harboring a secret? An uncooperative pastor hiding a possible motive? Or an ex-seminarian with an axe to grind? With a long list of suspects, even Roark wonders if the case can be solved. Will his keen eye and wry sense of humor get him his murderer? If Roark manages to press just the right buttons, the murderer might just fall right into his trap.
About the Author: Raised in Southern California, I still remember those blissful days of driving around the freeways, the Manson murder rage, and all the stuff that makes Los Angeles what it is. Out of high school I joined the Navy to see the world and ride the waves. Spent two very enjoyable years in Japan and protected our nation from missiles in Cuba. After four years in Uncle Sam's canoe club, I worked for a long time as a CPA but now I feel like all I want to do is write - to entertain, to educate maybe, to get my readers to laugh. Then I'd feel like I've accomplished something. Got a law degree and continue to be a member of the California bar so I like to dabble in legal controversy, hence the flavor of my novels. I'm also a frustrated stand-up comedian. George Carlin was my favorite so the humor in my novels has that kind of flavor. But, having studied for the priesthood, I'm still riddled and haunted with questions and doubts. I wonder sometimes - what does it all mean? How did Mother Church and I go awry? I try to put some of that perpetual anguish in my novels. I'm an avid reader of novels and try my best to very subtly copy the style of those I like. Still, I want to write novels that are truly novel, not copy-cat cookie cutters. Hence, I may, from time to time, experiment with some different approaches. Moved to the Midwest in 1980 to get away from smog and parking lots pretending to be freeways. Now, I appreciate four season climate and swatting mosquitos in the summer.
