Book 0: A Murder on the Mall
An introductory short story.
Peter Galloway thought he’d put murder in the rear-view mirror when he left Calgary Police Services Homicide to pursue the life of a private investigator. Cheating spouses. Runaway teens. PI work is a terrific improvement over the murder of the week he’d faced the past six years as a cop. Today the gig is something unusual— a nickel and dime protection scam. He’d have this one put to bed before dinner, maybe even before he finished his coffee. His strategy to catch the culprits is turned on its head, however, when a gunshot echoes along the crowded outdoor mall. So much for leaving murder behind.

Praise for the Peter Galloway Mystery series:
Calgary literary impresario Randy McCharles gives us a new and appealing detective, Peter Galloway, in this launch of a soft-boiled series (Galloway can't stand the sight of blood). McCharles has a deft, light, humorous touch that makes for a perfect beach read. Enjoy! -- Robert J. Sawyer, author of Red Planet Blues
A Murder in Wood Buffalo is a page turner you don't want to put down. The creation of such dynamic characters as: Galloway the P.I., Sgt. Ford the talented female RCMP officer, and Chief John Raging Bull of the Wood Buffalo Reservation keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering "who done it". If you enjoy mysteries with twists and turns and tension between characters, A Murder in Wood Buffalo is the beginning of your relationship with Galloway and Sgt. Ford. -- Kim Greyson, English teacher
I read Murder in Wood Buffalo and really enjoyed it. I found it well written, with a good mystery and pacing. The protagonist is appealing and someone interesting to follow in future books. I like the setting too and look forward to future settings (especially Mazatlan). -- Susan Calder, author of the Paula Savard Mystery Series & To Catch A Fox
