Ray Rumble #2
Bleeding Sisters
They tortured her. They cut her throat and bled her then hung her from the rigging of Bay Rumble’s self-designed, self-built sailing catamaran home, Baye Rumb. Three sisters hire Bay to find who did it. Wading through more killings and treachery, Bay finds his wisecracking, noisy, disrupting personality fighting terrorists with a plan torn out of today’s headlines; drug smugglers, government agents, exploding boats, sea chases, twists, turns, even personal tragedy, and finally, Bay himself is tortured, left to die, and not sure he can wrap up and tie off this caper.

About the author

55 books7 followersWritten So Far
Started by publishing short stories in men’s magazines; one to Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine. First novel, ‘The Surfer Killers’ published as ‘Surfside Sex’ by Neva Paperbacks in early sixties. With Merit and Award books and through promoter Lyle Kenyon Engel, wrote seven Nick Carter spy/adventure screw and kill books. One book, ‘The Defector’ went into three printings and was translated into French and Japanese. And writing as Patrick Morgan, wrote ten spy/thrillers in the Operation Hang Ten series with titles like, ‘Hang Dead Hawaiian Style’(translated into French and Japanese), ‘Cute and Deadly Surf Twins’, ‘Deadly Group Down Under’ ‘Too Many Murders’ etc. As Ray Stanley, wrote ‘The Mini Cult Murders,’ loosely based on Charles Manson.
Breaking loose on my own in the late seventies, wrote a sci-fi Romance ‘Beyond Gender Wars,’ eventually published as eBook by Extasy Publishing in 2010. Self-published three books in Baylor Rumble series, ‘Bad Girl Dead,’ ‘Bleeding Sisters,’ ‘Catalina Killers,’ as well as non-fiction book, ‘Making it on Social Security’ and two memoirs, ‘The $900 Honda’ and ‘Roar and Thunder.’ In 2011 connected with BooksForABuck Publishing who published ‘Satin Shorts,’ and 2012 ‘The Crossfire Diamonds.’ Also in 2012 received an award from the Southwestern Writers Conference, Albuquerque in the mystery/detective/thriller category for my crime novel, ‘The Farewell Heist,’ published by BooksForABuck in July 2013. Solstice Publishing brought out the eBook of #4 in the Baylor Rumble crime novel series, ‘Baja Bullets’ and in 2013 the printed version.
In 2013 launched my new, Logan Sand hardboiled crime series. The first novel, ‘The Calcutta Dragon’ is complete. Halfway through the second, ‘Plundered Angels.’
And a television media production company is negotiating with my publisher/agent for a film option on ‘Baja Bullets.’

I thought Book 1 of the series was very good. Book 2 is exceptional!
Bay Rumble is such a great character! He's tough and macho and scarred and in some ways, he's a marshmallow -- looking for the same things as most of us ... love, belonging, family. The reader learns a lot about Bay, the things he has had to overcome since he was born and abandoned in a garbage dump. I found myself looking at him with a different set of eyes.
He's been living on his boat, managing to eke out a living by doing various things. One of the things he had not imagined was finding a dead body hanging from the rafters with her throat cut... a woman he has never met, doesn't know. But someone thinks he knows something and they want whatever that is. He receives a note ... You're Next ... but the cops don't seem to be taking this seriously. When the sisters of the woman come to Bay and hire him to find the killer, the bodies start piling up and Bay is almost one of them.
The energy of the book is incredible ... the action never seems to stop. I found myself reading far longer than I had planned... just couldn't put it down. Lots of twists and turns keep the reader absolutely spell-bound.
I can hardly wait to see where Book 3 takes me ....
Many thanks to the author who sent me a copy of his book in exchange for an honest and unbiased opinion.
