Publisher's Synopsis
" Sandcastles in the Sun" is the first story in this series of four novellas featuring Julius '.J.D. ' Dickens and his partner Isaiah 'I-Hop' Hopkins. Dickens gets when his assistant, a 21-year-old first year law student, whose father, a police captain, is a close friend of J.D.'s, assures him that it's a simple "open and shut case" paid for with department money. Now, Dickens has "personal" reasons to take any case paid for with department money but soon finds that it's anything but and open and shut case. "The Spearhead Case," "A Heartbeat Away" and "Saving Primo" are more of the same spine-tingling stories that will quickly interconnect with the one preceding it and keep the reading reading until the last page is turned.
