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.

Bounty Hunter [REWRITTEN VERSION]
"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...

Something weird is happening in Quartzwater City. Roving gangs of chihuahuas are stealing everything that isn't nailed down.

He travels across universes to the distant planet Earth to seek help from his friends Sarah and Dr. Octavius in an attempt to figure out what the heck is going on. And what's the deal with all the strange doors that they keep finding everywhere? Meanwhile Zeke, our hapless protagonist from the first book, finds himself lost in deep space after being kidnapped by a group of condescending aliens intent on displaying him in a zoo on the planet Hoobler. Can he and his new friend Sadie find a way off the spaceship and back home to Earth? First they'll have to survive dangerous creatures, hostile planets, black holes, bad joke telling robots, and the greatest threat the universe has ever known. Take a trip into the farthest reaches of space and into unknown alternate universes in a story that its author is calling "A triumph!" "A real tour de force!" "Truly one for the ages!" "Wuckster has really outdone himself this time!"Lengkap
Mark Whelms, PI #1: Mind Games
18 year old Mark Whelms has just opened up business as a private investigator, and it wasn't long before he was hired for his first case: A bank robber who has no memory of robbing the bank. He must figure out whether the robber is actually innocent and, if so, who is the one really behind the crime. Looks like he will definitely get a chance to put his power to good use. AUTHOR'S NOTE This is the full novella in its entirety, free to read. I wrote this back when I was in high school and self-published. It's not a bestseller by any means and my writing and perspective has strengthened exponentially since its initial release. When you read this, read knowing that this doesn't exactly represent me and my skills as an author. There's another novel coming for that soon.Lengkap

Run with the Devil (SAMPLE)
A stolen life. A forbidden romance. An age-gap MM love story where desire becomes the most dangerous risk of all. Tommy // I didn't mean to end up here-scraping by, following in my deadbeat dad's footsteps, chasing a version of myself that doesn't feel real anymore. Then Adrian Ashford showed up, all control and calm danger, and suddenly I couldn't tell if I was being saved or swallowed whole. He offers me work, a purpose, a way out of the trailer park. But every time he looks at me like that, I forget what I'm running from. Adrian // I built my life on discipline, on following rules that keep everything in order. But Tommy tests every one of them. He's reckless, defiant, and too damn alive for the world I live in. The more I try to keep him at a distance, the more I find myself breaking the one rule the boss gave me: don't touch him. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.
