1. Stray Cat Blues
When twelve-year-old Frankie steps onto his boat, Max Plank has no intention of helping her find her lost big sister. He’s looking forward to a well-deserved vacation. His plan includes nothing more than a little fishing, a bit of fooling around, and a whole lot of hammock time.
Little does he know that this small, cute, skateboarding time bomb will lead him into a mystery with a tangled web of secrets and lies involving small-time hoods, powerful gangsters, corrupt politicians, paranoid hippies, and most dangerously, his long-time nemesis, a twisted casino operator at the heart of the city’s criminal trade.
As Max races to untangle the convoluted case and find the little girl’s sister, the mayhem and dead bodies pile up. Finally, he realizes that the only way to get the whole truth involves risking his own life. But for Max Plank, this is just the price of admission to the game he’s decided to play.
2. The Ties That Bind
A wealthy San Francisco socialite with a mean streak. A torch singer enmeshed in a sordid love triangle. A brother and sister with a strange bond.
Nothing adds up until Max Plank starts snooping, slowly uncovering the secrets and lies, the rot at the heart of a prominent family’s history.
Max is trying to adjust to his new role as a co-parent to a twelve-year-old girl when the matriarch of one of San Francisco’s most prominent families steps onto his boat. He normally steers clear of cases involving family affairs, but the old woman is desperate to prevent a femme fatale from taking advantage of her young son and a large fortune. With the help of a fat envelope stuffed with cash, Max agrees to at least give it a cursory examination.
But once Max catches the scent of the mystey, his curiosity and need for justice take over. Soon it’s unclear whether he’s the pursuer or the pursued until he realizes that he’s put at risk the people he loves most in the world. As the dead bodies pile up, the twists and turns explode into a stunning climax where a monstrous secret is finally unmasked and innocent lives are forever ruined.
4. Blinded by the Light
A wildly charismatic cult leader. An enraptured young woman. A series of mysterious deaths.
When one of Max Plank’s oldest friends comes to him desperate for help after Jen, his daughter, disappears, neither of them realizes the dark turn the young woman’s life has taken after her meeting with a charmingly seductive sociopath. But after traveling to Malibu, Max stumbles into the haunts of an enigmatic cult shielded by celebrity and vast wealth.
Now, Max must penetrate the secretive inner circle protecting Judd Farrell and enforcing his twisted vision. As the dead bodies pile up, time is running out for Max to save Jen and escape the fate that those opposing Judd have suffered.
