Del Staecker is a master of the genre.\" - Hollis George, editor and anthologist This gritty hardboiled tale unfolds on the planks of two strikingly different boardwalks - Atlantic City and Ocean City, New Jersey. After four decades on the Shore's music scene, Joe Kontos, a worn-out industry icon, finally hits his personal wall of despair. In an effort to find himself Joe downsizes his life and retires to the safest, quietest place he can imagine - the wholesome family resort of Ocean City. However, it is not tranquility that Joe finds. Instead, a cleverly disguised evil entraps Joe, luring him back to Atlantic City and the grimy side of life. While searching for a missing girl, Joe is deceived, shot, framed, and deceived again before discovering that it is not easy to be a hero.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Del Staecker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1945772174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781945772177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Absolutelyamazingebooks.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.59d","brand":"Del Staecker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47474298716415,"sku":"9781945772177","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7927826f-ee3d-4d28-b258-b1404a1de6a1.jpg?v=1762315977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/one-good-man-del-staecker-9781945772177","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
