Both of those comments made me happy. I wrote the kind of book I would want to read.
At Amazon you can read the first part of the book for free. It's a 99¢ download on Kindle. And while I'm not real good at math, I think the average movie ticket costs about 75 times that much.
*In all seriousness, if you do choose to read it (it's a quick read, approximately 100 pages or so), please fire me an email and let me know what you think.

Now something else I have to buy. The picture of the 1911 sold me as that is the sidearm that I carry every day.
Done and Done! Can't wait to read it Doug!
No Kindle here. Do you know if it can be downloaded and read on a computer? It looks like a great book. There's a Kindle app for smartphones and tablets but no indication it works on a PC.
Need hardcopy!

Yep, there's a Kindle app for PC - it's pretty cool.
Link.
Thanks!
Thank, Doug. Kindle app installed and Hard Boiled downloaded.
Review to follow.

Yo, Doug: Have you looked into Smashwords? It doesn't require exclusivity, and you get to keep 70% to 80% of the price of the eBook. It's been good to me; perhaps it will be equally good to you!
Bought your book.
I read it last night and loved it! Kept me guessing until the end. Best of all, you have a fresh, witty, vigorous writing style, which makes every paragraph sheer delight to read.
KUDOS!!
I promised a review. Herewith, the one I posted on Amazon.com
Doug Ross' first novel barrels down the tracks at full speed, like something by Mickey Spillane out of Janet Evanovich. Ross' characters are well-defined and scene descriptions are vivid. There's a deft turn of phrase (e.g. "the siren song of cholesterol") on almost every page and the plot is quirky and engaging.
"Hard Boiled" is a bargain at 99 cents. Where else can you get a couple of hours of great entertainment for that price?

I read the free preview on Amazon and really liked it. Sort of Elmore Leonard meets Herman Wouk. As soon as I buy my Kindle, it will be my first book on it.
