Jimmy Favreaux has a healthy respect for Zambonis. Not once, but twice, the ice-conditioning machines tried to run Jimmy over. After being blamed for the second mishap and getting run out of town, Jimmy left northern Minnesota's bitter winters behind for good. He moved to Florida and became a private investigator. His business card proclaims he's a finder of people, places, and things. Jimmy thought he'd left his past behind him, but like an out-of-control Zamboni, his past has him lined up in its sights. Doug Thompson's wife, Ruth, disappeared from the Jacksonville airport, and all signs point to Jack Powers as the culprit - the man responsible for getting Jimmy run out of town twelve years earlier.Every good mystery has a dead body, and we find this one in a hotel. Now it's Jimmy's job to find out if the death was natural, self-inflicted, or assisted, and - if there was help - from whom? Set on the Florida/Georgia border, Zamboni Is Not Pasta is the first story in the Blue Bridge Mysteries, featuring Jimmy Favreaux, PI: finder of people, places, and things.

From the small town in southern Minnesota where he had grown up, he was sent around the world to a place called the Philippines. It was World War 2, and Jacob Wesley Zimmerli was part of the US Army. Specifically, he was a member of the 96th Infantry, a division called The Deadeyes. This is the story of his days in service to his country, from enlistment until he was home again. Relatives of soldiers from WWII who have never heard their father's or grandfather's story of their time in the war will find this a great resource. Told without fanfare or gory details, this is the story so many soldiers lived.Nearly 300 WWII Veterans are dying each day, many without ever telling their stories to anyone. This is the telling of the stories lived by this one soldier. This is One Soldier's Story.

In Wanted: Dead or Alive (Again), Jimmy Favreaux uncovers not one but two murders with surprising connections 140 years apart. It will take two investigators to track down a missing husband and a stolen manuscript. Jimmy and his partner, Pepé, return in another Blue Bridge Mystery. Pepé is seeking a doctor whose wife believes he has died. The doctor's wife is ready to move on, but is the doctor? Meanwhile, Jimmy chases down a stolen award-winning book manuscript, trying to avoid becoming another corpse in the process. Speaking of bodies, Jimmy's new client seems inclined to share with Jimmy, but he has rules about dating women who throw themselves at him, especially married ones! Twists, turns, history, local color, and hijinks await readers of the second book in the Blue Bridge Mysteries. And introducing Wendi Lyst! Jimmy may never stop blushing.
