I love page turners. Grab me, hold me down, and don't release me until you're good and ready. So that's what I decided to write: Books that strap you onto a bullet train for a ride you can't - and don't want to - escape.

I also decided to stick with what I know. I'm a handyman. Not a very good one, mind you, but adequate. Persistent. I like the challenge even when it frustrates me. I've probably invented several unique combinations of swear words to keep me from inflicting damage or quitting forever. That's an important tool for any handyman.

Jim "Handy" Mann loves to do it himself so much that he does it for his neighbors, too. His job gives him time to help out when needed while he keeps an eye on his neighborhood. They trust him in their homes and he trusts them because that's the kind of guy he is. And that's where the problems begin.
