Short description

R.D. Clarke, the underachieving son of a renowned private detective, assumes his father's identity to take on the case of a prospective client he's smitten by. Armed with nothing but his wits and comically limited detective skills, R.D. must navigate through an endless procession of lies, double lives, family feuds and love triangles to uncover the secrets of a young couple's disappearance.

Extended description

R.D. Clarke is a loser.

It's mere days before his 27th birthday and R.D. still lives in his childhood bedroom and works as a secretary for his father - renowned detective Jerry Clarke. Everything changes when the beautiful Lauren Welbourn drops by without an appointment to urge the elder Clarke to find her missing brother. Showing uncharacteristic guile (and stupidity), R.D. pretends to be Detective Clarke and takes the case, which provides more excitement and danger than he bargained for.

Armed with nothing but his wits and comically limited detective skills, R.D. must navigate through an endless procession of lies, double lives, family feuds and love triangles to uncover the secrets behind a young couple's sudden disappearance.

I'm Detective Clarke is the first thrilling comedic mystery in the series of eBooks featuring R.D. Clarke.

Review by: Jennifer Fincher on Aug. 06, 2011 : star star star star star
This book is a mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat, with twists and turns at every corner. You will be guessing through out the whole book on who did it. Each page brings suspense and anticipation you will not believe. Truly a well thought out and intense mystery. Can not wait for book 2 of the Detective Clarke series.
