Writers Helping Writers
Unemployed teacher Mary Malone faces a serious dilemma when her private investigator brother Matt, who has been overseas for seven months, announces he is returning to Minnesota in three weeks. How is this amateur sleuth going to explain to him about his missing dog? And what about the murder cases she has taken on in his absence, especially the one in progress? Without the help of her widowed aunt and neighbor Mrs. Grimshaw this time, can Mary succeed in finding the dog and solving the death of Don Hickleman, owner of Hickleman Pickle Plant, before Matt discovers what she’s been hiding from him?

At first this book was written for tourists that never see the Puerto Rico that exists beyond San Juan. As the pages added up the book took a an unintended twist into the dark side of an underworld that has Puerto Rico on it's knees financially and morally. After several years living in the pueblo of Cayey, Puerto Rico, the author has come to the conclusion that legalizing Marijuana on the island would cut the violence in half and generate the revenue needed for the island to recover from Hurricane Maria.
