I have a little break here between various releases and promotions, before having to come up with a really awesome Christmas post, and thought I would just give a few details on what is coming down the pipe from P.D. Workman.
The next three books from the Zachary Goldman Mysteries series are currently available for preorder. For those of you who are not familiar with Zachary Goldman, he is not your gun-toting, beat-em-up, break-the-law type of private investigator that you see so often in books and on the silver screen.
He is good at what he does, but he has had to claw his way up from a less-than-optimal beginning to get where he is today, and deals with a lot of demons; some horrific experiences in his past, relationship problems, mental illness, and learning disability. But he fights to overcome all of these barriers and to bring his clients some level of peace or resolution. Zachary is one of my favourite characters. He’s vulnerable, but determined enough to tough it out and make it through the hard times.
Grittier topics than my cozy mysteries, some tough social issues, but they are still clean. If you don’t want foul language, gore, and explicit sex, you don’t need to worry. You won’t find them here.
Here are the next three cases coming up for Zachary:
She Told a Lie
A missing girl.
Her confused family and friends don’t know what to think about her disappearance.
The police will only put so many resources into the search for a missing teen. They don’t have time and money to spend on runaways and voluntaries. But that doesn’t mean no one cares.
Zachary Goldman is on the case, and he is determined to find out what happened to Madison Miller and to bring her home safely.
If she’s still alive, he’s going to find her.
No matter what danger he might face personally.

She Was At Risk
Zachary has done his very best to let go of ex-wife Bridget and relegate their relationship to the past. So when her current partner comes to him for help, he is understandably hesitant to help.
But Gordon has always been a stand-up guy and done right by Zachary, so he reluctantly lets himself be talked once more into helping Bridget and Gordon.
Zachary struggles with obsessions and self-doubt at the best of times, and this is a case that could break him.
His investigations lead him from one dark revelation to another until Zachary has no idea how he’s going to find his way back into the light.
