The Set Up

Synopsis for The Set-Up
The Set-Up is the first story in a series that introduces Jeremiah Funk, a new breed of detective with whom readers will identify while they are being amused. He doesn't fight, doesn't even own a gun and is both bumbling and gullible in his dealings with women. He lives on a medical pension — and two million dollars that he doesn't dare to talk about — deep in the Rocky Mountains where he hunts with a bow and arrows, drinks, plays with his computer, fixes up his cabin and occasionally takes on assignments. Funk is a humorous uncultured nice guy — who usually just happens to win in the end.
