- ~ Tim Baker, author of Eyewitness Blues

“I picked up a copy of Naked Alliances wanting a change of pace and I thought it fit nicely since I hardly ever read crime novels. I wanted something close to me that I could relate with and since this takes place in Orlando Florida, my home town, I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed. With a very accurately written story that delivers a variety of emotion and very well developed characters in the form of Richard and Brandi you’re sure to enjoy this murder mystery.”

“When you pick up an independently published novel to read, you never know what you are going to get. I have tried to read a few that were so amateurish that I couldn’t finish them. I’m very happy to report that Naked Alliances is one of the best independent books I’ve ever read. It was funny in parts, gripping in other parts, and overall very entertaining. I will be looking forward to another Richard Noggin adventure…”

“Part Carl Hiaasen, part Elmore Leonard, Naked Alliances takes the reader on a humorous but serious ride through the seedy underbelly of Orlando. Richard, a likable private investigator, teams up with a transgender showgirl, Brandi. Not only does Brandi make for a refreshing and original protagonist, her military background enriches the story, making her a capable sleuth in her own right. Throw in the setting of a nudist resort along with some alternative sexual lifestyles, and you’ve got a unique and page-turning read. I thoroughly enjoyed this ride and fans of original murder mysteries will too.”
