Mystery Private Eye
Zack is back, and much to his family’s relief, the work-at-
home science-fiction writer has left the house to take a
job as a features writer for the city paper. But now that
Zack’s incessant plotting can no longer be hatched from the
comforts of his own home, he must be ever more vigilant to
outwit the evil at large, whether in the suburbs, the city,
or his own imagination. Zack is ready…or so he thinks. While researching his first feature article, Zack stumbles
upon a real-life crime scene, but what seems like an
ordinary hit-and-run may actually be a homicide linked to a
gang that’s been burglarizing Crandall’s high-end shops.
Suddenly Zack finds himself at the center of a violent
crime wave and destined for a confrontation with Barbie
Bullock, an unsettling figure infamous in the crime
syndicate for his ruthless business tactics and peculiar
proclivity for collecting dolls. And all is not quiet on the home front either. Zack’s
protective instincts launch into overdrive when he
discovers that his daughter’s rejected suitor has been
tracing her every step and may harbor a much more ominous
motivation than winning a Saturday night date. Nor does his
son’s strange behavior and recent friendship with a creepy
computer recluse inspire joy in a father’s heart. As worlds begin to collide and boundaries between family
and foe blur, Zack goes on the attack, and heaven help the
bad guys when this resourceful father comes to make good on
a deal gone bad.
