One of my neighbors still hasn’t taken down their Christmas decorations yet. They made a Christmas tree out of tinsel and hung it outside their front door. We have had some pretty crazy wind and rain for the past two months, but that sucker has held strong. I am impressed by it’s resilience, but highly annoyed that it’s still up. I really shouldn’t give it two thoughts, since they are not in view of my house. They are down the street. Unlike the neighbor I share a back fence with that has left her Christmas lights up for two years. At this point they are no longer Christmas lights, they’re just lights. I always wonder about people who leave their Christmas decorations up until Summer. Why don’t they take them down? Just WHY??? Maybe that’s what is really weighing heavy on my mind. Not the fact that they are up, but the why are they up.
The Long Drunk
by Eric Coyote
(84 Reviews)
Genre: Mystery, Thriller & Suspense | Mystery
FREE for a limited time
In Venice, California, the sun always shines, but that’s not much help if you’re a homeless drunk like James Murphy, a man with a past of shattered dreams and empty bottles. Murphy’s life in the gutter was bad enough, but now bad gets worse. Murphy has one week to solve a cold-case murder that has police detectives stumped, or else his best friend dies. Inspired by Chandler, Steinbeck, and Quentin Tarantino, THE LONG DRUNK is a darkly comic crime/detective saga filled with sex, violence, booze, and plenty of foul street talk. Hard-boiled, heartbreaking, and gritty as heck, it thoroughly immerses the reader in the squalid yet resourceful underworld of the down-and-out. By juxtaposing the cruel realities of life on the street with the obscene wealth of the Hollywood elite, Eric Coyote creates an ultra noir masterpiece for the ages. THE LONG DRUNK, named to Kirkus Reviews’ Best of 2012, will leave you cringing, laughing, and begging for more.
