Then he finds a suitcase filled with cash - and thinks all his problems are over.
This young adult suspense novel comes from acclaimed author David Housewright.
Praise for the novels of David Housewright…
"McKenzie, who navigates a treacherous path just to stay (barely) alive, not only delivers a Nick Charles–like ending but metes out poetic justice to a fair number of participants."-- Publishers Weekly
"Housewright's wit is every bit as sharp as (Robert B.) Parker's" -- Killer Books
"McKenzie, who describes himself as a 'knight-errant doing favors for friends' (he’s a retired cop with a lot of money so he doesn’t need a day job), makes a fine series lead, charmingly unlikable in a likable sort of way, and the stories are solid mysteries with a hint of humor. A very enjoyable series that deserves a wider audience." --Booklist Online
