To the public eye, Vincent Campbell is seen as a controversial figure known for his bizarre behavior, offensive outbursts, and contrarian stances—on top of a number of legal issues. Unbeknownst to most of the world, however, he holds secrets far worse than derogatory remarks in his personal life. And when it catches up to him, he tells all to his psychologist, Lorraine Lynch, who has been assigned to find out why he has done what he has done.")

The wait is over. Brody James and his partner Bullock return for the sequel to the Eric Hoffer Award for Independent Books nominee “The Boys Are Back in Town.”
Brody James and fellow officer Libby Evans were looking for Roger. Instead they found Tom Downing. Dead in a park.
Carson McCall was found shot in the alley behind the Booker Building. And Brody’s quirky neighbor was seen fleeing the scene.
“Will this be a long story?” I asked, knowing the answer already.
To Bullock, there is not a short story. His stories are rarely linear. They’re like an audio presentation of that kid’s path from school to home in the Family Circus comic strip.")

"Mr. Pardo did a great job helping me to realize my (somewhat vague) vision for this book, matching the style of book 1 perfectly, steering me away from a design idea that wouldn't have worked out well."
