Pawns and Phantoms (Book Two of An Everland Mystery)
He’s just a bouncer
Todd Malcolm would be the first person to tell you that he’s no Basil Stark. He’s just a bouncer, part-time detective’s assistant, and brawler who does his best to get by on the mean streets of 1950s Everland, relying on a keen eye and a quick temper that gets him into trouble as often as out of it. Everland is a dangerous place to poke at secrets. Colonized by corporate interests in the 1930s, it is an island of industry, fading magic, and political and corporate greed.
When Todd gets mixed up in an arson one night and gets fingered for the crime, he’s thrown in over his head. With Basil Stark, Everland’s premiere detective, caught up in his own problems, Todd is going to have to rely on an eclectic collection of friends and allies to clear his name and untangle a plot of blackmail and murder that threatens to overwhelm everyone that he loves.
Joined by his good friend Glimmer the fairy and Vance Carson, known throughout Everland as ‘that other detective’, Todd will have to contend with federal agents, angry tigers, murderous mermaids, and shadowy threats at every turn. Does Todd have what it takes to handle this case, or is he just a pawn in a dangerous plot?

Praise:
“I first want to say that this book is an enjoyable and well written “who done it.” The storyline kept me guessing, and at times, thinking I had identified the culprit(s). There are, in fact, several mysteries and surprises that are taking place throughout the story, including blackmail, murder, and thievery. The setting to the story is an earth where magic is the norm and the reader is introduced to many characters who are talking animals, fairies, and what not. All the magic enhanced my enjoyment, and even though I was close to identifying the bad guys, I was only close.” — RT, amazon

Basil Stark isn’t the man he once was. A reformed pirate and private detective, he walks the line between criminal and hero, living in the corners of what was once the island of Neverland, its magic slowly fading into the new world of the 1950s. But when a routine missing-persons case turns into a murder investigation, Basil finds himself pulled into a tale of organized crime, murder, unstitched shadows and dangerous espionage. With only a handful of fellow outcasts and a stubborn determination to bring a killer to justice, will he survive the many people who want him dead?
