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:
Phoenix newspaper columnist Alexander Strange enjoys his job writing about news of the weird, but his own life turns bizarre when shots riddle his uncle’s Scottsdale, Arizona home. Who would want Superior Court Judge Leonard D. Strano dead? And why? Alexander has twenty-four hours to find the answers or he’ll have a death on his hands. Maybe his own.To solve the mystery, he must cobble together an unlikely alliance of newspaper and television reporters, a sketchy bailiff, and a retired madam, all the while dodging the intrusive eyes of a pair of dubious FBI agents, packs of wild dogs, a freeway sniper, and an uncontrolled forest fire. And how in the world did he end up in those high heels?
