I live on the West Coast of Florida. Paradise for sure. When I’m investigating a case, I see the best of Sarasota, as well as some pretty horrific crimes. I take a camera with me when I’m out and about. Sometimes I use it to photograph crime scenes. My half-brother Jayson says I’m a Neanderthal, says I should use my phone to photograph. Heck, I’m so analog, I’d use a film camera if film wasn’t so damned expensive. But I digress. The following slideshow shows the beauty I’ve seen while investigating some awful crimes. There are pictures of a huge gator in the slide show, maybe the same one who ripped off my old man’s arms in my first case, The Myakka Murders. You’ll also see a picture of Marlowe the Cat warming up the throne for his master. I hope you enjoy the show.

Right now I’m butt deep in alligators, trying to drain a swamp. What began as a murder investigation of a Brit who was found with a pocketful of Euros has turned into a full-tilt boogie investigation with the usual cast of players from the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office, my girlfriend Laurie, plus a good cop and a bad cop and some terrible criminals who need to be brought to justice. My author, Doug Sahlin and I are looking for clues at the scene of the crime. Stay tuned for more information on my latest caper, A Pocketful of Euros. If you’d like to find out more about the mysteries I solved while taking these pictures, scan the QR code and you’ll see the stories of the first three mysteries I solved after I got my private investigator’s license.
