Halloween decoration are popping up everywhere around the neighborhood. Am I falling behind? I don’t think I am. Am I?? Noo. I wasn’t going to put anything up until October 1st. Costco has these huge 8 or 9 foot tall zombies that have been flying off the floor for the past month. I am not a gory zombie kind of decorator, so no temptation there. But I know they are extremely popular this year, so they will be in every neighborhood. Where are these people storing these things? I haven’t bought or made any new Halloween decorations yet. I just haven’t been in the mood or inspired. Maybe I need to watch a few classic Halloween movies and get in the spooky spirit.
Crooked Man (Tubby Dubonnet Series #1)
by Tony Dunbar
Genre: Thrillers
FREE for a limited time
IF A GYM BAG OF CASH FELL INTO YOUR HANDS, WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO KEEP IT?
The FIRST offbeat mystery in the TUBBY DUBONNET series by Anthony- and Edgar-nominated author Tony Dunbar. A simple man with a refined palate, maverick New Orleans lawyer Tubby Dubonnet has a penchant for fishing, Old Fashioneds, off-track betting, and fighting evil while passing a good time.
His clients are all renegades from the asylum (aka Orleans Parish), including a transvestite entertainer, a buxom deadbeat blonde, a doctor who refers his own patients to a malpractice lawyer, and a Mardi Gras reveler who drives a float shaped like a giant crawfish pot. He also has his hands full with an ex-wife and three teenage daughters, who are experts in the art of wrapping Tubby around their little fingers.
And somehow, between work and family, Tubby finds time to sample the highs and lows of idiosyncratic Crescent City cuisine, from trout meuniere amandine and French roast coffee with chicory to shrimp po-boys and homemade pecan pralines. Tubby’s new client is Darryl Alvarez, the manager of a local nightclub who’s been caught unloading marijuana from a shrimp boat.
At their first meeting, Darryl entrusts Tubby with an ordinary-looking blue gym bag. But after Darryl’s unfortunate demise, Tubby realizes he must tighten his grasp on the gym bag — and its million-dollar contents. Tubby can’t just give up the cash. But if he gets caught, he’ll be in jail. And if the wrong people catch him, he’ll wish he was.

He has one option and one option only – stop the threat, or everyone will die.
Avner Ehrlich, the Mossad’s “operator,” is inserted into Tehran, on a mission to eliminate Professor Hamdani, a senior Iranian nuclear scientist. His task becomes increasingly complicated, and Avner is called to abandon his mission and return to Tel Aviv. But, being Avner Ehrlich, he decides to ignore the command and stay on course.
A violent battle develops in Hamdani’s home, in the center of Tehran. With Ehrlich’s gun pressed to his head, Hamdani’s son comes running in and hangs desperately onto his father. Ehrlich lowers his weapon and retreats into the darkness.
In the debriefing at Mossad headquarters, Ehrlich takes responsibility for the failed mission and is suspended from his position. However, it isn’t long before he is summoned urgently back into action when it turns out that Hamdani is in Moscow with Colonel Rasputin, and together they have armed a stealth submarine with the “Czar’s Bomb” – the biggest nitrogen bomb in the world.
The submarine is making its way to join the Russian military fleet in Syria, but its true assignment is to bring destruction to Tel Aviv. For Ehrlich, one option remains – stop the bomb, or everyone will go to hell.
