The Highband Detectives
Jul. 5th, 2011 11:15 pmUm, yeah, I know, I haven't even solved my FIRST mystery and I just had my second one pop up. The next novel (August?) doesn't have a name, but if there was a single image on the front cover, it would be a pair of dog tags (I don't know if they're bloody or not) and it's about Dom's old Gunnery Sergeant who retired to Huntsville, Texas and has been kidnapped. I'm sure a good title will come to me as I work. I know that the Gunny is named Tom and his wife is Kate.
Ok, they were Tom and Kate, then I realized where I'd heard that particular pairing before and...it's not happening. I'll find good names for them later on.
Also, Dom is missing his right thumb, it was severed in the accident that tore up his leg and busted his knee. Every time Dom has to picks something up, I find something of comparible size and weight and make sure he can carry it without using his thumb. Opposable thumbs, who knew they were THAT important?
It's like making sure that it's his LEFT leg that is damanged, not his right, because he has to be able to drive without constant pain. (It's kind of a thing.)
