Purple Heart Detective Agency

Clay and Roddy are two war veterans–both amputees–trying to rebuild their shattered lives through their struggling Purple Heart Detective Agency. Then the beautiful Angela Thayer enters the picture, asking for their help in finding her missing friend and employer, Trevor Baker–stage name, Merlyn the Magician. The high profile case promises to jumpstart their careers…until the search leads to betrayal, intrigue, and mind control. And then the murders begin....

The Big Jangle is a new collection of case files from our two favorite vets turned detectives, who risk life and limb for Los Angeles’ quirkiest clients. It is 2019. Things are looking up for Roddy O’Malley, one-half of the defunct Purple Heart Detective Agency. His family is happy and healthy, and life as a security consultant is easy. However, Roddy misses the action with his partner. Clayton Grace, though, is still on the run—trying to find the men who want him dead.

Time and luck seem to be running out for The Purple Heart Detective Agency. Violence has a toll. Running afoul of the law has its limits. But for Clayton Grace, there is a woman involved—the one who got away. His first love, Linda, the woman who chose another man over him. And now that man is missing. One week into retirement, Grace takes Linda's case against Roddy O'Malley's objections. The path is never easy when the heart is leading the way.
