FREEZE: A Joe Box story

by Jim Reeves

Ex-boxer and night club singer Joe Box is finding it difficult to make ends meet and needs to supplement his income. He finds a job with a small detective agency run by the drop-dead gorgeous Maggie Dancer and is suddenly catapulted into a brutal world where murder, blackmail, and paedophilia are considered the norm. Joe falls foul of some very bad people and a desperate flight for survival ensues. His reaction to the situation reveals a side of himself that even he didn't know existed. Five men die as Joe struggles to get his life back to normal. He inevitably cuts a few corners along the way and attracts the attentions of a blackmailer and the local police force in Birmingham. However, he ducks and dives his way out of trouble just like he has been doing for most of his life. Most of the action takes place in Birmingham but moves to Austria for a while part-way through the story.Previously published as DEAD UNLUCKY.
