Publisher Description: Summary: Advance Praises: "I really like how Victor Lightening keeps tranquilizing people. All the characters say super funny things. It's so cool that no matter what place Victor is, he can find a clue. I think kids who like detective stories would like this book." "Look out Raymond Chandler. There's a new kid on the block and he actually is a kid. Philip Marlowe meet Victor Lightning, and for readers of noir crime novel adventures meet the boundless energy of young author Erik McShirley. "I think children and adults would like this book because it has comedy and is good clean reading. I love that Victor Lightning is smart and in any situation he can find the solution to the predicament. I think it's great how Erik was able to give each thief his own personality. It's a great story." "Erik provides an entertaining and exciting story about a detective who values justice and safety for even the criminals he captures by not using a lethal weapon. Victor Lightning is a likeable character who always gets 'his man' and rights the wrong that occurred in each chapter. I enjoyed the humorous remarks of all the characters and the exclamations pronounced with every defining moment, such as the discovery of a clue or the unmasking of the villain. "My friend Erik Mcshirley is a young author with a grasp of life and understanding that he is able to transfer to the written word. I look forward to more of his writing in the future." |
