About the Author:

Born and raised in Southern California, James R. Preston learned poker at his father's knee. He took his skills to college where he once won an iguana in a seven-card-stud game. Read 'Em and Weep is the second book in the T. R. Macdonald series.

Review:

"James R. Preston's Surf City Mysteries feature non-detective detective T.R. Macdonald, a Wall Street wizard whose personal brokenness, intellectual rigor and sense of rightness are the necessary tools for revealing an Orange County that is far darker than our local real estate promoters would like us to know.
"Preston's fans get his talent. They call Surf City Mysteries addictive, engaging, and spellbinding. They sometimes note that the series is darkly funny. I worry that they miss the one quality that makes them really great and terrifying: they're true." -- Will Swaim, Founding Editor/Publisher, OC Weekly
