Got a Nook for Christmas?

Mazel tov!
Quick, stock it with the best in detective fiction:

Things like this:


Murphy on the Mount

This is the first novel-length story featuring Michael X. Murphy and his brother Joey. Murphy takes on the most impossible of cases,
no leads, no clues, and then no client!

As the case unfolds, however, Murphy learns of the "Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit"--the unpardonable sin! He proceeds with the
case now burdened with the concern that he may already have committed it and is thus irretrievably lost.

Murphy on the Mount is a humorous, thoughtful, and ultimately triumphant story of forgiveness and redemption.

(This, for less than a side of fries.)



Don't Mention It

This story first appeared in Alfred Hitchcock in May, 1988. It is included in the collection I Don't Do Divorce Cases, but if you're  looking for a single story to start your exploration of the world of Murphy, it's a classic example of David Justice's style.

Murphy and Joey start into what seems like a normal missing person case. But curious inconsistencies emerge in the client's tale.

(This, for less than the price of a pickle.)
