Still Sharp: The McClane Mysteries: Complete Collection
Still The Jack McClane Mysteries
By E. L. James
Five gripping cases. One retired detective. A small town full of secrets—and puzzles waiting to be solved.
Jack McClane may be retired from the Boston PD, but he's far from done. When he relocates to the quiet town of Wellsville, he expects peaceful days and slow mornings—but finds himself pulled back into the world of mystery, mischief, and mind games. In this anthology of five noir-inspired novellas, Jack’s sharp instincts and dry wit guide readers through twisty tales reminiscent of The Maltese Falcon and classic detective fiction.
But this isn't just another mystery collection.
Still Sharp is thoughtfully crafted for seniors—especially those in the early to mid stages of dementia—who still crave engaging, intelligent storytelling. Each story is broken into short, chaptered novellas with guiding questions at the end of every chapter to help readers follow the clues and stay immersed. The book features intentional formatting with generous white space to improve readability, reduce eye strain, and support comprehension without drawing attention to itself. There’s no mention of dementia—only smart stories designed to be enjoyed solo, with a caregiver, or even alongside grandchildren.
Whether you’re solving crimes with Jack McClane or just enjoying the ride, Still Sharp offers brain-boosting entertainment with heart, humor, and humanity.
