Recent release "My Town Is on Fire: Answers and Solutions" from Page Publishing author S. Wayne Hall is an entertaining work of realistic fiction centered on the exploits of Tom Beckway, a retiree leveraging his long-ago police experience to keep busy by assisting local attorneys and insurance companies in their investigations. Amid the mundane interviews and legwork to which he is accustomed, Tom unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in the aftermath of a double-murder in his small Indiana town and resolves to solve the case.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- S. Wayne Hall, a novelist living in southern Indiana with his wife of twenty-eight years and an onerous cat named L.C., has completed his new book "My Town Is on Fire: Answers and Solutions": a gripping and fast-paced novel that keeps the pages turning until the final chapter.
Tom Beckway is retired. In his younger years, he had a brief but extremely successful career in law enforcement. Because small-town police departments could not afford to pay their officers very well and because he had a young family, Tom made the decision to leave law enforcement. He took one manufacturing job after another, raised and educated his children, and now at the age of sixty, is comfortably retired. The concept is important to him.
With lots of free time on his hands, Tom starts a business called Tom's Answers and Solutions. Using his dated but significant law enforcement training and experience, he put together a resume and distributed it to local law firms and insurance companies.
When they need to locate a witness, or if they are in need of a sworn witness's statement, Tom is the man for the job.
In this case, Tom is hired to get a witness statement from the sister of a recently arrested man. Sounds simple, but Tom soon finds himself in the middle of a double murder and all kinds of small-town intrigue.
With the knowledge that his estranged wife is on her way to Indiana for a surprise visit burning in the back of his mind, and with the help of his live-in brother-in-law, and despite the misadventures of his mean-as-a-snake cat, LC, Tom Beckway is determined to find the answer or solution.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, S. Wayne Hall's book is an engrossing detective novel and the first in his new series starring Tom Beckway.
Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase "My Town Is on Fire: Answers and Solutions" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
