Synopsis

Captivating, Suspenseful, and Provocative

A serious and riveting story, but told with an abundance of humor, Perfect Strangers: Bad Bear Down –the third in this timely and evocative series, will keep you engaged and amused throughout. Early readers have found it “captivating, suspenseful and provocative.”

Seeking revenge for the murder of his wife at the behest of the Russian president, and further impassioned by the unspeakable atrocities committed in Ukraine and elsewhere under that savage despot’s direction, retired CIA operative Hap Franklin leads a clandestine operation to bring down the Bad Bear.

The mission provides Hap time for sobering reflection upon elements of an otherwise celebrated life that he’s neither altogether proud of nor satisfied with. This nearly existential journey serves to feed Hap’s own demons and spiritual anxiety as he struggles with his faith in search of both guidance and forgiveness in order to get life right while there is still time.

About this title

About the Author

Passionate about his craft, Lloyd finds it difficult to resist writing something every day, and has been doing so since retiring from a decades-long career in the institutional investment business. Long addicted to the written word, he earned a bachelor's degree in English from the University of Virginia, and his first two books in the Hap Franklin Series - Reunion of Strangers and Strangers No More - were published in 2018 and 2021, respectively. Lloyd is a lifelong member of his church and has sung in its chancel choir since 1967. An avid gardener, he and his wife have two adult children and reside in Fox Chapel, a suburb of Pittsburgh.
