"Insanely funny!" "This is the wackiest, funniest series I've read in years!""The minute I get my hands on one of these books, everything gets pushed aside until I'm finished.

Hook, Lie, and Sinker.When a string of idiotic decisions lands Bobbie in a boatload of trouble, she's got to keep a lid on her temper before she winds up on the next episode of Snapped! With her cousin Earl's hand in one pocket and partner Grayson picking the other, Bobbie's cash is disappearing faster than banana pudding at a Baptist pot luck. Oddly, so are the folks in the tiny fishing village of Astor, Florida. Then again, it's the middle of gator-hunting season. And with horrendous tales of a murderous beast trolling the riverbanks, just who's the angler and who's the bait is as blurry as swamp gas at midnight. Bang Sticks. Dead-Eye Gravy. Limbic Pentameter. Given the deadly school of suspects they're forced to wade through, the mismatched trio will have to cast a pretty wide net to snag this monstrous culprit. Will they be able to swallow their fears and tackle the mystery afloat? Or will they end up as the killer's next catch of the day? This is one fishy case that could spell their final recipe for dis-Astor ... Like Carl Hiaasen? Janet Evanovich? Christopher Moore? You'll probably love Freaky Florida Investigations, too!

Heinrich"I've heard the expression "I laughed so hard I cried" but I never experienced it until I read this book." Amazon Review"I read a lot, and Kindle suggested this book. (it's) laugh out loud funny. Is everyone in Florida crazy?" Facebook Review"Not a scary or over the top paranormal book. I stayed up until 2:30 in the morning reading it. It was just that good! I'm a real scaredy-cat, just not into reading about things that go bump in the night. It is filled with quirky characters, mystery and a lot of humor. So if you want to be truly entertained, READ THIS BOOK." Amazon Review"Plenty of mysteries and slap stick humor with a backwoods redneck cousin thrown in the mix. I almost felt like I was reading a cross between Terry Pratchett and Piers Anthony." Amazon Review"Full of wacky characters, amazing descriptions, and lots of theories of the unknown, this book makes for a funny mystery." Amazon Review"Rampant with humorous banter and fun interpersonal relationships over a solidly bizarre mystery and great characterization." Amazon Review"This is a rollicking ride from the very beginning with laugh-out-loud prose, rednecks, weirdos and Tootsie Pops...oh my!" Amazon Review

This is a book written in poetic verse about the absurdity of a belief in a god named YHWH. It examines the ethical dilemma this fictional god faces as he claims to be a god of love while destroying most of mankind in the flood and committing ethnic cleansing when his chosen people are instructed to kill all the inhabitants of the land they conquered. It claims that this god is just one of many made up ones like Thor and Zeus and Athena, most of which have faded away from relevance.YHWH only exists in an abstract sense and is simply the construct of people trying to explain natural phenomenon using a supernatural point of view.
