I thought writing for a cartel boss was painful. Then I got stabbed by a platypus. Twice.
The name's Jett Turner and my writing about Acuña Cartel head Tito El Tigre Calderón has turned my life into a mosaic of absolute insanity. This past month has seen me get poisoned by the aforementioned animal (Yeah, they're venomous. Look it up!), survive a plane crash, deal with a clowder of feral cats, and go toe-to-toe with a SanterÃa priest and my witch doctor of a housekeeper. Throw in two DEA agents who awarded me Informant-of-the-Month status and won't leave my pool, a dangerously seductive stewardess, and an Australian who has a bong crafted from a koala skull, and you get an idea of what I'm up against in my want to live a happy semi-retired life.
This third misadventure that is my life is rated R for language, crude humor, and insanely bizarre circumstances but rates an A+ for all of the aforementioned and entertainment value.
Platypus Sacrifice Performed at the Acuña Cartel is Book 3 in the wildly popular Jett Turner Misadventures series. Check out the rest of the books in the series:
