Spin Kick: Nothing Funny About That
Book 1 of this crime thriller series
Ever since his Pops passed, 28-year-old Ted Roosevelt travels the U.S. in his Marvelous Caravel administering spin kick justice whenever, wherever necessary.
Trained since childhood to kick, punch and morally strategize by his old man and their fighting mentor, Master X, Ted seems to attract bullies and intimidators without ever trying.
Another traveler with far darker intentions is doing his own cross-country tour – a serial rapist in an unlikely line of work, a standup comedian who targets music students in their soundproof rehearsal studios.
As detectives and federal agents struggle to interpret the baffling attack pattern, Ted’s world collides with the culprit and with whiskey-loving detective Jimmy Harris, whose own alcoholic family is gradually imploding.
In the end, our spin kicker finds himself in a life or death battle, one it turns out only his dead Pops can help him survive.
SPIN KICK is subtly salt-and-peppered with humor and Teddy Roosevelt references, a clever page-turner that gives readers trapped in a world of bullies and a-holes the satisfaction of fearlessly fighting back.
