When wealthy Russian investors contract L.A. psychologist Joel Fischer to develop a device to manipulate minds, the Dreemweever exceeds all expectations. Everything is on track for delivery and a big payday, until two adventurous stoners steal his Dodge Challenger that, unknown to them, contains the Dreemweever in its trunk. Fischer and his crew have two days to get it back or he dies.

My crime story "Toraloo" over at Thrillers, Killers -n- Chillers
Started doing a jig when I got an email this morning that my crime short story "Toraloo" was now showing over at Thrillers,Killers-n-Chillers. If you would like to give it a read, click HERE
Nice work, mate. Left a comment over there. Googled Toraloo (A new word to me.) but google had it as Tooraloo. I'm guessing the words are related, with the lullaby thing.
Great story! You have such a strong voice in your pieces, and you built some really nice tension. Of course, I loved the Irish teasers all the way through.
I still can't believe there was no Jameson. Bet they didn't have any Guinness either.
I left you comment there. Your stories always me squirm SPR! BTW- I purchased MindJacker, I've got a list on my reader before I get to it, but it shouldn't be too long before I do. ;-)
Great, Sean. I'll check it out when I get a chance later.

ReplyDeleteWell done, mate.
And what a stonker it is too!
ReplyDeleteI must confess (to Detective Barber) that I hadn't a clue about Toraloo (hey, that counts as poetry dunnit?).
I thought it was a toilet for a conservative MP. No? Okay, I'll get me coat...
Seana- I hope you enjoy it and get the tongue-in-cheek Irish Nationalist theme of it.
ReplyDeleteDave- Good call on the title, It comes from James Joyce's "Ulysses"
"'Toraloo,' Lenehan said, "'see you later.'"
Col- Thanks for posting the story on TKnC and I got your joke, very clever!
Just checked out the story and it's class. I'd read a full story with these guys in it.
ReplyDeleteWell done.
Another winner, Sean, just brilliant.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you so much for the review of my wee effort over at Smashwords. You're an absolute star!

ReplyDeleteTF- Thanks for the read man. I think most writers always keep their characaters in mind for mayeb bigger things someday.
ReplyDeleteJulie- My pleasure as always. If I like something, I'm going to tell anyone who will listen about it. If not, I say nothing.
Laurita- Thanks for taking the time to read and I'm glad you dug it. Bushmills was not an option, or Harp ;)
Jodi- I def go for the squirm factor, if nothing else. Too kind of you to take on Mindjacker. I hope you find it at least entertaining.
This is a great post thanks for writing it
