As a Maine boater, I’d like to think that this review in Maine Boats & Harbors magazine, will prompt DAMAGED GOODS to be taken along on many a coastal cruise.
Nothing like a good book on good boat in a sheltered Maine harbor. Set the hook, make a drink (maybe a Boodles in memory of my hero, Travis McGee), and settle in. For that reason, this comment is one that warms my heart. Check it out. I especially appreciate the kudos for my good friend, Clair. He’s a good man to have around, Clair is, especially when someone is trying to take you out.
This is the assessment of reviewer Carol Standish:
“He’s a Vietnam vet with more skills than any human being can use in a lifetime unless you’ve fought in Vietnam and live next door to Jack. In every book he gets progressively slower, quieter, more deliberate and more deadly.”
Any other Clair fans want to weigh in?
In PORT CITY SHAKEDOWN, the first Brandon Blake novel, Brandon gets a full dose of bad guys. A brawl in a funeral home introduces him to Joel Fuller, a sociopathic hustler. Fuller is fresh out of jail and determined to take Brandon out—after Fuller and his sidekick Kelvin shake him down.
Rocky isn’t a tough guy. He’s a skinny little kid with crooked glasses, and he shouldn’t be homeless in Portland, Maine. When McMorrow and Roxanne pluck him from under the stomping feet of a gang of street kids, Rocky latches onto McMorrow–and drags him into a world of murder, both old and new. Why is McMorrow protecting Rocky? The cops want to know. Why is Rocky on the run? McMorrow wants to know. Why does death follow in Rocky’s wake? Jack and Roxanne need to find out before they’re added to the list.
