title: Lethal Judgment: A Simon Says Detective Adventure
author:  P.J. Lawton 
description: Relentless in his quest for retribution, P.I. Winston Simon is shot at, banged up, and literally blown away as he pursues the villains against whom he had sworn vengeance. Before he can reach his goal, however, he will have to face a long and complicated series of bad situations, as well as a list of bad people who would want nothing more than to put an end to his life. A serious injury nearly ends his comeback and any chance for the settling of scores he so desperately seeks. With another lengthy recovery completed, a series of cases contributes to his journey of revenge, culminating with a day of reckoning and final judgment filled with flames, blinding pain, and death. Is this life-changing ordeal finally over for Winston Simon, or is it simply the beginning? Only the passage of time will tell.
