Striking Down Scoundrels

Jerry D Harrison (Paperback)

Corporate scoundrels have wiped out the retirement savings of Abe Brown’s kind friend Ann Walker along with the savings of hundreds of other retirees. Abe and his buddies watch as Ann’s daughter and family move Ann from the Ozark View Retirement Center where she can no longer afford to live. “Somebody oughtta’ strike down those scoundrels!” declares Abe, and he sets upon a plan to do just that, using tools and knowledge from his shrouded past.

However, Abe is eighty-six years old, tired, and dying. To accomplish his mission, he must get help from Don, Roy and Walt, his three closest buddies who are in their early seventies and are also friends of Ann. But, the three men are Christians who would never endorse Abe’s plan for the scoundrels. Abe is clever, and covertly secures his friend’s assistance, as the four old men travel over 8,500 miles in a specialized 35’ motor home pulling “the garage”, an enclosed 24’ trailer which houses Don's PT Cruiser, Abe’s Stella motor scooter, four high back rockers, three full golf bags, a charcoal grill, a big tool box and other necessities. While Don, Roy and Walt enjoy their journey and play golf, Abe stalks the scoundrels responsible for the financial harm to their friend Ann. Abe’s friends repeatedly encourage him to accept God’s grace, but Abe is adamantly certain “Your Jesus wouldn’t want anything to do with the likes of me!” Abe doubts that God’s grace could exceed Abe’s capacity to sin.

Jerry D. Harrison’s newest book, Striking Down Scoundrels, is a “must read” for every mystery enthusiast. Mr. Harrison’s graphic descriptions of the scenery throughout the book take the reader from a beautiful, serene retirement village through the colorful eastern coast. His opening descriptions of the Ozark View Retirement Center made me want to pick up the phone and make a reservation! The story’s characters are colorful, lively and thought provoking, ranging from Abe and his three buddies, to Ann and her sensitive, caring friends, to the dirty, rotten scoundrels. His plot carries the reader on a suspenseful tour as a result of action needed—action caused by an atrocity that mirrors the headlines of today, affecting thousands of Americans. The intrigue compels the reader to keep turning pages. I highly recommend Jerry D. Harrison’s Striking Down Scoundrels to mystery lovers who enjoy a suspenseful, thrilling, descriptive read.
