Review & Description
It’s bad enough to agree to spy on the guy your neighbor’s ex-wife is dating. It’s even worse to get caught . . .
Seventeen-year-old Joe Panza thinks he has it all: a beautiful girlfriend, a starting position on the school basketball team, and a dog who definitely is man’s best friend. But all of these slowly start to slip away as Joe’s life becomes a living nightmare. At first it’s little things, like problems with his car, but then it gets worse. Much worse . . .
REVIEW:
"LUKE'S SITUATION is a compelling drama that will keep you captivated from the very beginning to the very last page."
--Lawrence Kelter, bestselling author of The Stephanie Chalice Mystery Series
EXCERPT:
He slipped out of the house like an eel, careful not to make a sound, and did the same when he came to the gate. He paused, looking for a place to hunker down, and decided on one of the bushes next to the driveway.
“Did you get the plate number yet?” Luke asked in his ear.
“Not yet,” Joe said. “I’m trying to get into position.” God, he sounded more like a spy than ever. He might as well talk to Luke in code in case an enemy was eavesdropping.
“Okay,” he said after he’d scurried over to the bush. “I’m looking now.”
The back of the Mercedes looked closer, yet the license plate was still blurry, the letters and numbers indistinguishable. This was the closest he dared to get and was about to abort the mission, when he decided to try adjusting the focus one last time. Slowly, with each turn, the picture within the two circles became clearer. The view was still a long way off from being considered HD, but it was enough for Joe to make out what he needed.
He read the letters and numbers to Luke as he tried to steady his hands and stop the world from trembling (through the binoculars it looked like it was in an earthquake). When he finished Luke said, “Let me read it back to you.”
Joe confirmed all but the last digit before everything went black. For one horrible second, he feared that God had struck him blind for being sneaky and underhanded. Then he lowered the binoculars and saw that it was much worse. A tall and brawny man stood over him, silhouetted against the sun.
