Hey! My new quirky mystery novel, Handicap, is out!
It's about a scratch-golfing little person who escapes the scorn and ignorance of others out on the course, where he always plays alone. That's until a corpse he discovers in the number 2 bunker steals it all away. Little does he know then that he'll have to join forces with a colorful cadre of characters whom you'll only discover in Florida to solve the mystery and, perhaps, to save other lives, including his own. (Don't tell anyone, but it also includes the only known sure-fire guaranteed cure for a slice!)
Were you so inclined, it may be purchased from my publisher at:

Here's a bit more info about the book from the back-cover blurb and bio:
Thom hates standing just four-foot-seven (and a half!). After watching his mother bleed to death from a knife stuck through her heart, he runs away and lands in backwards backwoods Florida. There, he becomes an expert golfer. This is no small feat, and one he credits to his short game.
Thom only golfs alone. It’s where he escapes the scorn and ignorance of others. The course is Thom’s World. Until, that is, he discovers a woman’s bloody corpse on number two—stabbed through the heart. Then Thom’s World becomes a black tunnel of terror and guilt. He can’t even raise a club without collapsing in panic.
Thom must solve the murder not only to escape suspicion, but especially to reclaim his glorious solitude. This, however, finally forces him to open up to others: like Dyleane, who sees Thom for what he is on the inside; Jade, the ample proprietor of a cafe and whorehouse; Father C, a chain-smoking priest with a pitiful toupee; and others still, who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried.
