That Bear Ate My Pants: A Comedy Memoir… with Teeth and Claws! (Adventure Without End Book 1)
There comes a time in every man’s life when he says to himself, “Good grief! I’m about to be eaten by a bear!”
24-year-old Englishman Tony James Slater went to Ecuador, determined to become a real man.

And how do you find love when you a) don’t speak the language, and b) are constantly covered in excrement and entrails?
Wrongly convicted of treason, Gideon Quinn has spent six years harvesting crystal under the killing suns of the Morton Barrens, until the day a general of the Colonial Corps arrives with an offer of freedom—and a chance to clear his name.

What he finds is plucky street-thief, a city steeped in corruption, and a trio of assassins bent on stopping Gideon from discovering the menace buried at the heart of the Colonial Corps.

They Had No Fear Of The Cops Because They Were The Cops
NYPD officers Mike Dowd and Kenny Eurell knew there were two ways to get rich quick in Brooklyn’s Lower East Side. You either became drug dealers, or you robbed drug dealers. They decided to do both.

These “ Cocaine Cops” formed a lucrative alliance with Adam Diaz, the kingpin of an ever-expanding Dominican drug cartel. Soon Mike and Ken were buying fancy cars no cop could afford, and treating their wives to levels of luxury not associated with a patrol officer’s salary.
