Three short works featuring Florida Homicide Detective James
T. Kirkland who has to put up with a Star Trek loving
Medical Examiner, an ex-wife, and a cousin who overreacts to
just about everything. Sometimes murder happens when and
where you least expect it.
Red Shirted
"He's dead, Jim." Homicide Detective James T. Kirkland
dreads the Star-Trek loving medical examiner's joy in
stating the obvious. This time, the victim was wearing a red
shirt, and when what looked like a death from natural causes
turns into a homicide, Kirkland is called upon to solve the
crime, red shirt and all.
Red's Heat
"There's a body buried in my yard." Detective James T.
Kirkland braves the hot, sweltering heat of a Florida summer
to debunk his cousin's claim before both of them are set up
for ridicule in the Sheriff's Office. But when the body
isn't really a body, Kirkland accepts being the butt of
department jokes—until things take an unexpected turn.
Red Flagged
"Call me when you've got a dead body." Favorite words of an
over-worked detective trying to get some shut-eye. But when
his ex-wife calls and says her friend is missing, all
thoughts of sleep evaporate as James T. Kirkland rushes to
help solve the mysterious disappearance.
Red Flagged first appeared in Deception, a Mystery Anthology
published by Highland Press, 2011.
