"Captain, please reconsider. There's no way I'll be able to work with her. She's reckless, she doesn't follow orders, and she's a danger to the operation. Bounty hunters will sell out anything for the right price. What makes you think we can trust her?" "I'm not asking you to trust her. I'm asking you to trust me." "I do. But I don't need her, Captain, I'm perfectly capable of doing this on my own..." * * * Maize Ember is the most cunning and most feared Bounty Hunter in all of New York City. She's ruthless, but she's the best. She can take down any criminal, she can fight any bad guy, and most importantly, she does not take crap from anyone. Not even Alec West, the top ranked detective in the precinct and her unspoken competitive rival. But when a new case comes to light, and Alec and Maize find themselves going on a high risk mission, together, they can't believe it. With the help of each other they must protect a long ago friend of Alec's, an undercover cop that holds valuable information that could bring down the Crime Syndicate that has been terrorizing the streets for years. Can they put their distasteful feelings towards each other aside for the sake of the mission? Alec doesn't think he can trust anyone. Maize doesn't trust anyone. What will the two do when they realize they stumbled into something much bigger than themselves - and that an old ghost from Maize's past might be back to haunt them both? It all comes down to a game of cat and mouse...

He makes dumb mistakes so you don't have to. "A great and humorous kids/young teen story with plenty of twists and tension."

So he does what every unemployed man must do in this desperate situation: He becomes a private eye. Drew knows nothing about being a private eye, but how hard could it be? As he says in his Facebook ad: "You ever wondered how a private eye finds a missing person? Or trails a cheating husband? So have I! So hire me, and I'll figure it out! I'll try stuff the other guys won't even consider - 'cause I don't know any better!" As Drew goes about learning his new job, he finds himself a rather enthusiastic partner - Krista! Together, they investigate the case of a fading movie star who tragically fell to her death on the set. But was it an accident - or did someone take their "creative differences" a little too far? Join our two bumbling private detectives as they constantly scramble to stay afloat and sometimes even to stay alive. The story will keep you guessing right up to the surprise ending! If you like Theodore Boone, The Adventures of Jack Lime or Veronica Mars, you'll love My Dad, the Private Eye.
