Jim Wolf Returns

In Epitaph for Emily, the second book in a trilogy featuring P I Jim Wolf, he falls for a young woman, Emily, with straight straw-colored blond hair, granny glasses, freckles on her face. She turns up dead with Wolf charged with her murder. With his own life in jeopardy, he must find the killer. Wolf's quest leads him to the Cal campus, a bearded expert on Vonnegut who was sleeping with Emily, and a Retro-Sixties bash called the Commie Cafe' where the past becomes murderously the present.

Epitaph for Emily is available in Kindle and Nook formats at $2.99, and in paper at $14.99 through your independent bookstore, Barnes and Noble and Amazon.

The third work in this three-part series featuring PI Jim Wolf will be called The Curse of the Chameleon, and is expected out late 2013.

No Time to Mourn is the first novel of a three-book series featuring PI Jim Wolf, all published by Krill Press.

A shape bends over a drink at the end of the bar in Big Emma’s on Oakland’s Jack London Square, looking like a bundle of black clothes someone has left on the barstool. Full red lips that match brightly dyed hair provide the only color, as if an artist had begun to colorize her just before she walked out of a frame in a 40’s noir movie. Her name is Susan, and she is there to hire PI Jim Wolf to find the killer of her husband, and to protect her from a man called Red. Wolf takes her case, but Susan herself is then murdered and Red attempts to kill Wolf…and the hunter becomes the hunted. Order immediately for as soon as a print edition is available from the Kindle/Nook price will go up. If you don’t, Wolf will find you. You better have a good alibi.

No Time to Mourn is available in Kindle and Nook formats at $2.99, and in paper at $14.99 through your independent bookstore, Barnes and Noble and Amazon.

Lee Childs says:  "Like a great twelve-bar blues--the comfort of a familiar form jazzed by a fresh key and an exciting new voice."

The Pink Tarantula Now Available in Kindle for $3.99

Wohlforth returns with The Pink Tarantula. In this novel of nine closely related episodes, we join Crip and Henrietta, as unlikely a detective duo as ever hit the streets. Crip and Henrietta aren't a typical private eye team. For starters Crip's real name is Tom Bateman. His sometime sidekick Henrietta, with body piercings and spiked green hair, calls him "Crip" because he rides a wheelchair. Their cases aren't Middle America either. Henrietta grows marijuana. She hangs with jailbirds. She brings Crip jobs that smell of trouble - and weed - at first sniff.

Henrietta's idea of a favor? Well, a couple of crazed fighting dogs need a home.

The private eye business and California haven't gotten this kind of a reworking since Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler planted their gumshoes onto these mean streets.

Also available as a quality paperback at $12.95 from PerfectCrime Books and Amazon, and in Kindle at $3.99.
