Easy As It Gets

By Ed Robins

"All I wanted was to never feel anything again. Manipulated and betrayed, I'd lost all hope for a happy ending. I deaden my emotions with the drug Copa, and that made it possible to go on living-if you wanna call it that.

"Then a mother and her son go missing and, as it turns out, I'm just the guy to find them. Lucky me. Ripped outta my high, I'm ensnared by a tangle of cons, lies and treachery that not everyone wants unraveled. The lives of a boy and his mother hang in the balance as I teeter on the edge, and it's only a question of which will put me in more danger: my mouth or my addiction."

Inspired by the hardboiled grit of Mickey Spillane and the concision of Elmore Leonard, Easy As It Gets is a sci-fi / mystery mash-up devised in the best traditions of the dime store paperback. It is the first in the Murder on the Starship Australis series, itself part of the 10 Cent Universe - a genre-bending macrocosm.
