Here’s the opening: Allie Espinoza Monday 7:00 p.m. When the idiots over at Granley Insurance offered to pay me a whopper of a sum to investigate Max Munson—a man who’d been on their fraud radar for some time—I hesitated only long enough to catch my breath. But first the photo and …

November Reader Friday
November Reader Friday will unfortunately be the last Reader Friday until I finish my latest manuscript as I simply don’t have time to read very much right now.
