The Naked Truth

Zane Yancy’s in a small fishing boat with his buddy Abe Neckler bobbing somewhere in the Gulf. The fishing trip is abruptly interrupted when Percival Gaspar shows up on the scene offering Zane an unwanted job.
After considerable persuasion, Yancy reluctantly agrees to undertake the care, unaware his friend has snuckered into investigation that occurred in a nudist camp. Megan leaps at the chance for a two week vacation and is the persuading power behind his agreement to remain on the job after being told he had to bare his buns to remain at the camp.
His investigation takes him and Megan to Chicago, to Houston and back to Galveston and introduces him to a number of people with reason to murder the blackmailer.
His interest in the cases and his short temper sparked like a slow burning fuse when someone takes a shot at him and Megan, miss only to try again and miss again. Then, when the would be assassin tossed a grenade through a bedroom window took the cake, his fury unleashed, Zane Yancy as at his most dangerous. Someone had attempted to kill his beloved Megan. Now, nothing could interrupt his investigation and eventual capture.
With the guilty behind bars, Zane returns to his second love of his life, his fishing boat. One again to be interrupted by Percival insisting he return the quarter of a million dollars to the Cicago police. He got a taste of his own medicine when Yancy puts a slug between his feet, and gently tells him to prove he has the money.
