Frank Merriman, P.I.

Franklin Ernest "Trigger Happy" Merriman is the most powerful man in the world of law enforcement in this hilarious, zany and highly offbeat new novel by Mark T. "The Comedy Answer Man" Watson, author of the critically acclaimed Shadow Busters novel The Aspiration of Detective Broderick Throckmorton. Detective Merriman - a man with the ability to combat the tyranny of justice in various investigations - is capable of cracking the case, playing pranks with his suspects and uncovers the truth.

In each chapter, Frank Merriman, P.I. unravels the mysteries and searches for the clues to the men, women and children - having cracked the case - and how he brings his dumb goons, racketeers, pickpockets, man hunting fugitives, crooks, compulsive gamblers, auctioneers, highway patrolmen, sheriffs, elementary school children, shoplifters and all other persons committing crime to justice in ever new investigations.

Watson - better known as "Mr. Camouflage" - continues his tradition of writing hilariously funny private investigator mystery satire to millions of readers globally with his own brand of procedural humor, bringing new generations of detective mystery thriller fans with an offbeat approach to print-based fiction.

Together with his Merriman Investigations collaborators Simon "Pistol" McCullough, Ray "Ray Gun Man" Duke, Willard "Crossfire" Drake, Howard Willard "Revolver Bill" Justice, Macdonald Sean "Matt" Justice, Raymond
D. "Laser Beam" Bean and Dave Merriman, Frank tackles the toughest cases involving all victims committing crime across America.
