Closed Caption:

hello thank you for visiting the website
if you've been reading me for a while
you know that ass
start fresh with a new cast of
characters for each book
I'm disinclined to ride series based on
one character
and in the past two decades I haven't
been moved to carry
over a character from one book to
another until
I met dodge Hanley and smash pat I hope
you'll remember dodge from that book
he was the crest CT irascible
investigator for Gary
mitchell's law firms dodge wasn't in the
original synopsis that I set my editor
I didn't even know he existed antilles
showed up for a meeting with Gary
and then what ok I liked this guy from
the moment he walked
into the same throughout smash cat he
continue to intrigue me
his cynical comments never fail to make
me laugh
and when I was finished writing that
book I found myself wanting to know more
about him
I wondered what happened to give him
such a low
regard for mankind and for life in
general
so I did some investigating and
discovered
the pivotal event dodges life that
determines it is self-destructive path
he would take for the next 30 years
tough customer we Scott just turbulent
back story into a present-day crisis
the setting steamy East Texas
dodge cuz they're looking for trouble
and finds it
in the form a maniacal killer and army
training deputy sheriff
and two had strong women he whines that
risking
not only his jaded heart but also
his life you can make da gym smash cat
when it comes out in paperback
on July 20 then read his story
tough customer when it goes on sale
August camp
