About this listen

A nerdy author of pulp detective novels has to solve a real murder before he gets bumped off by the Mob.

Charlie McGinley writes detective novels. At least he did, until writers block kicked in. He owes his publisher a book, multiple wives alimony and a loan shark is about to break his thumbs.

Charlie hightails it out of L.A. two steps ahead of the police and his latest ex. On Route 66, he runs into Ben Fox, a mysterious Native American hitchhiker who just happened to know Ernest Hemingway Charlies favorite writer.

Charlies life gets even more complicated when he and Ben are dragged into a murder at a shady cryonics lab. Will Charlie be able to avoid the police, Mob hitmen, and his ex-wife, while trying to save an aging beauty queen from being frozen to death?

THE RIGHT STIFF is the first book in the Charlie McGinley Mystery series. If you like a hard-boiled whodunit with lots of laughs, then you'll love THE RIGHT STIFF.

Pick up THE RIGHT STIFF today and discover this new hysterical mystery series.
