Palos Verdes Blue
John Shannon



Fiction - Suspense
Reviewed for ReadersFavorite.com


Palos Verdes Blue is John Shannon`s eleventh Jack Liffey novel...

Shannon decides to bake a pie. He calls it Palos Verdes surprise. He took the following ingredients and mixed them up well:

One finder of lost children, a seasoned Jack Liffey.

His daughter,Maeve, a mixed up teen trying hard to do the right thing.

His lover, Gloria, a cop with serious job-related issues.

Jaime, a young Mexican deportee, who loves to surf, becomes Jacks` friend and tries to help him find "Blue".

"Blue" Hostetler, a rich girl who stuck her nose in the wrong beehive. Jack searches for her...will he find her?

"Twitch", a surfer, a gang member and someone perhaps in tough shape.

A Vietnam era explosives-trained drop-out nut case, "Ledge", a legend in his own mind.

and a few other minor characters thrown in for a little spice....

Shannon sprinkles the top of his pie with turf war, racial hatred, topsy-turvey feelings, border hopping Mexicans  and near extinct butterflies . Out of the oven pops  the piece de resistance, Palos Verdes Blue !

If you are looking for something spicey and sweet at the same time that you can sink your teeth into and enjoy til the last page, Palos Verdes Blue, is your five course meal. I will definately ingest another book baked by Jack Shannon soon. I encourage you to treat yourself to this tastey tidbit today!
