Author: JC Bruce
Bio:
Hi. I’m J.C. Bruce and I’m a journalist and author of a series of books recounting the adventures of Alexander Strange, the world’s only full-time weird-news columnist. The books in The Strange Files series are THE STRANGE FILES; FLORIDA MAN; GET STRANGE; STRANGE CURRENTS; MISTER MANNERS; and STRANGE TIMING.
Of FLORIDA MAN, Kirkus Reviews says: “Bruce’s prose is consistently crisp and controlled, and the tension between the various characters is genuinely entertaining throughout. A charming and suspenseful page-turner punctuated by dashes of the surreal.”
Book:
Alexander Strange wants to get to Florida in the worst way. So he arrives in a coffin. And why not? He writes about news of the weird for a living, so what could be crazier than that? Well, how about that psychic he picks up in New Orleans along the way — the one who sees death in his future? Will her prediction come true? Seems like it could when Alexander hooks up with an old college friend who is being blackmailed by a mad rhymester who sends her on a scavenger hunt across the state to a series of oddly haunted tourist traps. Kinda funny. Until it isn’t. Bullets will do that.
