Synopsis: Thicker Than Water

By day, Jon Harkness is a postdoctoral researcher for PHARMACORP INC LTD.

By night, he's Jack Hammerdrill, headliner at The Hanger Club male strip club.

When a mysterious woman takes him home and turns up dead the next day, Jon is the prime suspect. He'll have to combine his skills in science and stripping to prove his innocence.

Excerpt: Thicker Than Water

Esther Finkle was a schoolteacher. Five days a week she taught math and science to fifth graders at Woodbirch Elementary School. She had won the Teacher of the Year award in Compton county four years in a row and got a gift from her students every Christmas. Right now she was stuffing a dollar bill into the g-string of a well muscled and well oiled man who went by the name of Happy McGee.

One of her students, Billy Warden, had done a science fair project about money and its relative cleanliness. According his report, there were more germs on a dollar bill than there was on the seat of a toilet. Nonetheless Esther had clenched a George Washington between her teeth and was beckoning Happy McGee towards her with a wrinkled, arthritic finger. As Happy McGee thrust his yellow, smiley face thronged crotch at her, she squealed with delight.

If Billy Warden had done a science fair project on the relative cleanliness of a male stripper’s g-string, the results would have been sobering. He may have found that there were more crabs on a male stripper’s g-string than there are in some seafood restaurants. This may have kept her from slipping a finger - the one on which she wore her wedding ring - into Happy McGee’s g-string and then letting it go with a snap. But probably not.
