"The Small Matter of Ten Large"

Robert E. Bailey's Art Hardin became an instant mystery icon with the publication of his first novel, PRIVATE HEAT, which won the Josiah W. Bancroft Award at the Florida First Coast Writer's Festival in 1998 and was nominated for the 2003 Shamus Award, given by the Private Eye Writers of America.

Now, in a new short story, Bailey gives readers a look into Hardin's past and shows us a bit more of what made him the PI he is "today."

Be sure to read all of the Art Hardin mysteries, now available as eBooks from Ignition Books.
