Click on the story labeled "Greater Sins" by "Paul Sunderson."
It was actually the first written in my series about two private-eye partners in 1962 New Orleans, and I'm glad it's found a home.
My latest short story is up --

Are you working on a feature length novel? This worked well for the short read. 
Thanks, Gary!
"Feature length" is a good way to put it; I like to think of my stuff in movie terms. No, I don't have a novel in the works about these two characters or that period. Despite only being in grammar school at the time, I know a lot about The Other Sixties (the Kennedy era) from research -- but it would take a lot more for a novel. I'm working on a modern-day mystery, and taking on the challenge of writing from a woman's point of view (!).
So far, the members of my critique group are buying it. . . .

Gary, you and your wife sound like just the kind of readers I'm aiming for.
Most mystery series today bore me, because the author shows little imagination. The writer (usually female) is a former or current librarian/caterer/bird watcher who lives in a small town; the detective (usually female) is a current librarian/caterer/bird watcher who lives in a small town, etc. Where's the fun in that?
