Socko's First Case
Amazon.com Socko's First Case
My review -
Andy
‘Socko’ Garrett is seventeen and a Kingsman cadet. It’s his first case and it involves stolen
gold and a dead body – and it’s the king’s gold. Talk about starting at the top! With his more experienced partner Corporal
Barnes, he is given the task of solving the mystery and recovering the gold in
time for Boxing Day when it’s to be given to the poor. Socko started (and lasted less than a day) in
the local Watch. The difference between
him and the local watchmen is that he has brains!
This
is a great little story set in the time of the author’s full length novel
Wanted. You can read this as a
stand-alone though. I thoroughly enjoy
the post-apocalyptic setting when the constraints of minimum technology are in
place. Excellent stuff – and I still
want the second novel!
