The Frank Gould Mystery series by Alan Asnen are mysteries like no other. Asnen describes this series genre as “Slap-yourself-silly-sarcasm-with-a-serious-side-mystery-and-a-hefty-dollop-of-romantic-comedy-thriller”. A Bit of a mouthful, but highly accurate. Asnen’s writing is so engrossing, fun, funny, yet deep and sad. This is a very unique mystery series that shouldn’t be missed. Enjoy!
BUT TELL IT SLANT: A FRANK GOULD MYSTERY (FRANK GOULD MYSTERIES Book 1)
by Alan Asnen
Genre: Literature & Fiction | Humor & Satire | Mystery
A terrorist comes back from the dead and Frank Gould’s world is slowly turned upside down.
What Frank does not know as he sinks deeper into a trap, following tracks, is that the world at large is upside down. He has been buried away, inattentive, and now coming back to life like a drowning man struggling back to the surface. A shore where once his wife and daughter lived… Where today he listens to a young woman convinced by her dying father of a crazy plot no one else believes.
Frank, once a man of letters, has been eking out a living by finding pets and lost objects, now and then a missing spouse for friends. Widowed for years and mending a broken heart. Here comes an opportunity for something big, a thrill ride, and an experience of youth.
Yet, there’s that trap awaiting, and as he moves deeper into it, his prior years of experience as a professor and journalist tell him something is amiss. He has other training as well… There may be more mysteries within Frank Gould than the mysteries he pursues outside.
This first in a four-part introduction to a new series begins a long story, setting things… in motion, as it were. Kind of a train getting started. Because, as you’ll discover, these are no small crimes and no small-time criminals.
