Get your Reed fix with this humorous short story.
Deuce Smith, lovable friend of Denver private investigator Reed Ferguson, needs help. Someone mugged Deuce and stole his winning lottery ticket. And since Deuce had been telling everyone he met about the lucky ticket, the list of potential suspects is long. Moreover, finding out who did this to Deuce is only part of the problem; proving it is much trickier. Unable to resist the challenge of an investigation, Reed agrees to help his friend figure out who mugged him and retrieve the ticket, which leads to more than just finding a thief.
Cool Alibi is a suspense-filled mystery, with a Bogie-wannabe detective, lots of humor, and a clever homage to film noir. From the award-wining author of This Doesn't Happen In The Movies.
Great for fans who love a fast-paced, humorous read, without a lot of swearing or sex.

Kirkus Reviews:
The promising kickoff to Pawlish's comic mystery series, starring far-from-perfect private investigator Reed Ferguson. Pawlish earns high marks for plot construction, with twists and turns naturally unfolding as Ferguson, inexperienced but not incapable, feels his way through the case. A good-humored mystery series worth following.
5 star review:
Oh how I've missed the Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe characters that saw me with a flashlight in the dead of night flipping pages to see what happened next. Thank you Ms. Pawlish for bringing back to life this long-lost art of the detective battling against all odds and getting to the bottom of things.
