Death on a Rocky Little Island
Also known as The Snapping Turtle's Anus
Second in the Win Szczedziwoj series of canoe-country mystery-adventures.
A novel by Lenny Everson
"I like to be alone a lot. It's the way I am…."
Alice sat up. “That sounded like a rifle shot.”
“303, if I’m not mistaken.” Bill got up and walked down to the shore.
A bunch more shots came in on the night air. I wondered where Phil and Nancy were.
I probably knew Phil as well as anyone could, and I just couldn’t see him taking off into the night like that. A flashlight would be of limited use out in these islands, and it was easy enough to lose your way in daylight.
Then, of course, there was Cork out there somewhere. I had no desire to be out in the dark with a dickhead like that, even in broad daylight; there was something about him that reminded me of a one-man street gang.
So my guess was that he’d taken Nancy away just to get away, and they’d probably sneak back to the island somewhere along the shore. Heck, maybe they’d just circle the island.
Now, I’m an independent bastard, and like to paddle my own canoe. Unfortunately my own canoe wasn’t there any longer. I was on Blizard Island with two kayaks and a fishing boat. And Alice and Bill. I needed them like I needed another hemorrhoid.
Just when Win was hoping for a quiet few days taking pictures in the thirty thousand islands of Georgian Bay….
172 Pages. Five bucks, like all the stuff sold by Poetry and Good Cheer Press.
Note that I hand-bind copies of this sucker in the basement. I got this book, like, on how to do that. Looked good, but I never felt the pages were in there firmly enough, so I add a few big mother staples to hold it together. You take it as you get it, eh.
But this is my second novel, and it's even better than "Murder by Small Dark Lake" in many ways. And I sign every copy. Basement-assembled! Signed! Give it a try for only five bucks!
Includes a canoe, a couple of kayaks, a freighter, good guys, bad guys, smuggling, special forces, a mutiny, a snake, islands, and way too much booze for a canoeing trip.
[If you just want to read the novel online, let me know by email: I'll email you a Word copy.]
2007 Special: You can get both Win Szczedziwoj novels for only $9.99.
