About This Book
Rule Number Two: a gentleman never discusses his indiscretions
To most of his friends, Harrison Pius is a successful management consultant. But, in the shadowy world of professional gamblers and card sharks, he is known as "the Pope." Harrison has a way with women, but the only woman he ever wanted is the one he had to send away. It is an indiscretion he is reluctant to discuss. He eases the pain of losing his one true love with single malt scotch, high-stakes golf games, winning thousands of dollars on the turn of a card, and a part time girlfriend that brings new meaning to the word exotic. When Pius answers a call for help from his long time friend and surrogate father, he finds himself deep in a mystery that involves the theft of twenty-eight first edition books worth over a million dollars.
Together with his detective cohort, Bert Brogger, Pius soon discovers he must outwit not only a thief, but a psychopathic killer. For those familiar with the first book in the series, Rule Number Two will both disturb and surprise the reader as it catapults toward its shocking conclusion.
"Like single malt scotch, a good woman, and jazz standards, Harrison Pius just keeps getting better with age." - Mike Jacobi, KRML Jazz Radio, Carmel California
