He might be the only teacher who can afford to live in the district, he jokes. Seriously, he thinks something is wrong with that! There's a lot about the school system in America that needs fixing.

Produktbeschreibung
Jorge 'Shorty' Guillermo is a math teacher in a ritzy suburb of Seattle, who makes more money mining data for private clients than he ever will teaching. He might be the only teacher who can afford to live in the district, he jokes. Seriously, he thinks something is wrong with that! There's a lot about the school system in America that needs fixing.

The local Democratic Party is offering him a chance to be a part of the solution. They want him to run for state legislature. Shorty says yes.

Then the calls begin. Not just to him, but to his family. Weird calls. Threatening, he thinks, although mostly just weird. After the last few years, anything off seems like a threat. He's gotten sucked in to his oldest friend's police investigations, and if that wouldn't make a person paranoid, he didn't know what would.

Are the calls related to the police corruption investigation? Shorty doesn't see how it can be. But he knows one thing well, two, really.

One, weird escalates.

Two, he needs to call Mac. Shorty sighs. Calling Mac is almost a guarantee the situation will escalate. Mac's solution to problems is to blow the suckers up.

But someone making threatening calls to his mother? Shorty's just fine with Mac's solution.

Book 8 in the Mac Davis Thrillers about a former Marine turned cop reporter in Seattle.

Autorenporträt
L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.

"I write about religion and politics. About race and gender. I believe in the journalism axiom: Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. To which the labor organizer Mother Jones was supposed to have added: And in general raise hell. That works for me."

L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for an oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead a field that liked people who asked questions!

As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, Washington, D. C. Then she got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.

She is an over-educated, bleeding heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency.

You can follow her on Twitter @ljbreedlove for her political stuff, or on Facebook ljbreedlove for her writing life. Best place to find her -- besides a local coffee shop -- is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there. Or read her blog, snark included, and check out all her books.
