In Latin, the word "alibi" literally means "somewhere else," and to any person charged with a crime, it is an extremely valuable asset to have, because it can mean the difference between an acquittal and a conviction. However, just having an alibi isn't enough: it has to stand up to scrutiny, because any good prosecutor knows that breaking an alibi and proving it was fraudulently concocted can lead a sure-thing conviction. In this eleventh adventure of the Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries, Peter is forced into a role he never thought he'd be playing: that of a prosecutor.

In this tenth Peter Sharp Legal Mystery, Peter faces a double task: defending a person who is charged with murder, and also trying to locate the missing victim, who was allegedly killed in a completely locked room. Somewhere behind the tangled mess of a down-ward-spiraling celebrity starlet, a battling married couple, a missing currency trader and a dis-appearing corpse, attorney Peter Sharp and his legal ward Suzi must find where the truth lies. As in the past, while Peter's client's trial nears, Suzi has failed to come up with any workable solution that can save Peter from certain defeat and humiliation in court. You'll be sitting on the edge of your chair as you see the courtroom drama that takes place during the last few minutes of the trial.

Nobody likes a killer, but sometimes you have to put your personal likes on hold when you're a professional.... and that's what attorney Peter Sharp must do when he the court appoints him to represent a professional killer who has specifically requested his services. Peter's ex-wife, the District Attorney, assures Peter that an agreed-to plea bargain is already in place, so all he has to do is stand next to his client while the guilty plea is entered. Peter agrees to the contemplated one-hour of work as a court-appointed defense attorney and makes the court appearance. But when the case is called, the surprises start, and don't stop until the unexpected end of this twelfth Peter Sharp Legal Mystery.

The Santa Monica Superior Court is suffering from a flu epidemic affecting most of the judges, who all got infected while attending a judicial seminar overseas. To help cover their courtroom caseloads, several local trial attorneys are 'drafted' into service. One of them is Peter Sharp, who is assigned to preside over a high profile civil case involving an attorney with whom Peter and Suzi have had past conflicts. Notwithstanding their history, all parties agree to let Peter hear the case... and the final conclusion winds up 35 miles outside of Los Angeles, with Peter pointing a revolver at someone's head. This is the first time in his life that Peter has been in a situation like this, but he feels it is justified because it is to protect someone very dear to him. You'll be sitting on the edge of your chair as this page-turner forces you to keep reading to its conclusion.

The one attorney that rubs Peter and Suzi the wrong way most is Mister Morris Arthur, and this time he commits what our protagonists feel is the worst offense: getting one of them in trouble with the law. They all feel that Arthur's actions have gone unpunished for a previous crime, and he is on the verge of succeeding in repeating the act in another crime - and must be stopped. The secret to stopping Morris Arthur is by tricking him and his clever attorney into painting themselves into a corner in a trial... a position from which there is no favorable way out. You will enjoy the give-and-take dialogue and legal maneuvering of District Attorney Myra Scot Sharp and Morris Arthur's attorney during a civil trial that Myra hopes will result in forcing Arthur to admit his committing of two crimes that everyone thinks he is innocent of.

In this third Adventure, Attorney Peter Sharp is retained to represent a man accused of murder by the planting of bombs in vehicles. The client is also suspected of being part of a conspiracy to assassinate the President of the United States in an upcoming Fourth of July parade. With the assistance of his legal ward Suzi, Peter cracks the case, identifies the real murderer, and at the same time solves the mystery of a dead body found in his friend Stuart's automobile trunk... all while falling for a lesbian lawyer, winning a Will contest, breaking up a stolen car ring 4,000 miles away, and battling with his ex-wife, who has been elected to the office of District Attorney. In the adventure's hectic finale, Suzi manages to get Bernie, her huge Saint Bernard into a courtroom, where she makes her first official court appearance, holds her first press conference, and becomes a local television hero.

It's tough enough defending innocent people, but attorney Peter Sharp's new client has a reputation for disliking any person of color, and is then arrested with a smoking gun, standing over the body of a dead black man he had recently been seen arguing with.

Peter Sharp represents a client with amnesia. Not only is he unable to tell Peter his name, but also has absolutely no recollection of the crime he is charged with committing. Not to worry: Peter obtains video surveillance footage proving his client's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. As usual, this is one of Peter's cases that winds up being a conflict with his ex-wife Myra, who is the county's chief prosecutor. He also may be more closely involved with FBI Special Agent in Charge Bob Snell than before, as they share a dangerous high-speed situation on a winding road. Suzi's new friend Lotus and her mother also play an interesting part in this adventure as Peter finds that he is fighting a ring of credit-card fraud and identity-theft experts.

Peter Sharp isn't your usual type of attorney unless you consider getting divorced, disbarred, thrown out of your house, and disgraced, all normal for a practicing lawyer. In this first of the series, we join Peter while he tries to find out who framed him, why his wife threw him out, and how to make ends meet. He also gets involved with a case of Negligent Nymphomania, a ground-breaking new tort cause of action Peter finds himself drawn into. Making matters worse is the fact that his sole source of income - a former classmate, winds up dead; the man accused of murder by jealousy winds up his romantic rival, and Peter winds up getting appointed legal guardian of a precocious 12-year old girl who tries to solve the crimes before Peter and the police can.

There are many types of mysteries, but one stands out over all the others: the ones involving a Locked Room. Over the years, every mystery writer worth his salt has tried to come up with the one that tops all the rest: the secret compartments, the doors locked from the inside, the confused timeline, etc., etc, etc. Jacques Futrelle set the standard with his "Problem in Cell 13," but there hasn't been a really fine stumper since then... Until now. Gene Grossman seems to have created a locked room mystery to end all locked room mysteries: not only is the room locked - it is a steel security room from which entry or escape is physically impossible. The crime is actually seen by several witnesses, but the murderer has disappeared into thin air. If this mystery is to be solved, nobody has a better chance of doing it than a 12-year-old computer whiz: an adorable little Chinese girl who is the legal ward of attorney Peter Sharp.

Attorney Peter Sharp gets retained to defend a man accused of capital murder. The thing that makes this case a little harder to defend than most others are that the client's acts were cap- tured on videotape, he confessed to the police, and he wants to plead guilty. To make matters worse, the District Attorney's office has brought in a special prosecutor for the trial: Peter's ex-wife Myra. Peter is also hired to represent an insurance company, to defend it against a man who slipped and fell while inside a bank that was coincidentally robbed later that same day. In this adventure, while Peter is involved repre- senting Vinnie, the prolific, peeing pornographer. He also helps solve several bank robberies by catching the entire gang, and meets a gentleman who runs an autopsy store - all with the help of his legal ward, the adorable twelve-year-old computer wizard Suzi.

Suzi once again saves Peter's case by finding the connection between two crimes that allegedly took place in different parts of the State, one of which Peter was arrested for. And once again, Peter falls for a woman who he thinks could really 'be the one' this time. Peter's ex-wife Myra must make the decision as to whether or not she should resign from prosecution of a case in which she may have a conflict of interest - the prosecution of Peter's murder charge. Everyone including Peter is sitting on the edge of their chairs as this double murder mystery comes to a shocking conclusion that involves a mafia hit man, revengeful drug dealers, a local police chief, and the ever-popular FBI.

The Great Brodini, a well-known hypnotist/magician, is writing a book titled "How to Get Away With Robbing a Bank." To boost book sales, he plans to pull off the 'perfect' bank robbery and then beat the case in court, by: First, by use of an airtight alibi, to humiliate the District Attorney - a woman who has tried unsuccessfully several times to prosecute him for 'groping' female volunteers during the hypnotism portion of his show. Second, he plans to be defended by a person the D.A. is definitely not fond of - her ex-husband, the unsuspecting attorney Peter Sharp. And thirdly, it will provide him with a huge reward for recovering insured jewelry worth millions of dollars. The only problem is he didn't plan on going up against the crime-solving abilities of little Suzi, Peter Sharp's 121/2-year old legal ward, who has been waiting for a chance to expose Brodini as a fakir and regain her position as law enforcement's favorite go-to person.

Ballistics comparison tests performed on bullets recovered from several murders indicate that they were fired from the same gun - but one that could not possibly have been used, because during each time the lethal shots were fired, the weapon was in the custody of the authorities. District Attorney Myra Scot Sharp (attorney Peter Sharp's bitter ex-wife) appoints a special prosecuting investigator, but when she and all the other adults involved fail to solve this mystery, little Suzi B. is called in for assistance and tries to prove that her amazing theory about who the murderer is, even though it contradicts the opinions of every police agency involved. Is Suzi right or wrong this time? You'll be as surprised as Peter, Myra, and the police are when Suzi conducts an experiment on the boat that will determine the innocence or guilt of the person that she suspects is guilty.

This book is ground breaking not because of what it has, but what it doesn't have: No complicated drawings; no mathematics problems; no astronomical talk; no big words you've never heard of. Sailor-author Gene Grossman finally breaks this wonderful subject down into plain English and explains it in such a way that you will no longer have any excuse to claim that you know nothing about the valuable boater's subject of Celestial Navigation. This book was inspired by Gene's DVD program of the same title, which has gained worldwide popularity and is being used the the Navy, Coast Guard and sailing schools all over the world.

Depending on where you buy these books individually, you could pay more than eighty dollars, but if you order this 594-page first Volume of Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries compilations, containing books one through six for only $49.95, you will save at least one-third of the retail price... and that savings will continue for the similarly-priced compilation Volumes 2 and 3, which will also each contain six complete unabridged books. By way of background for this series, in 2003 Gene Grossman retired from the practice of law, and drew upon his 20 years as a trial attorney to create the first Peter Sharp Legal Mystery - and during the next decades he succeeded in writing fifteen books in the series, and went on to spin-off the most interesting character into a brand new series - the Suzi B. Mysteries. Now, Gene is breaking new ground again by offering readers the complete text of the first six books in the Peter Sharp series, so that avid readers can have them all in one volume, and save money at the same time. The same cast of characters appear every book of the series, but each one stands on its own and is a completely new story with no references to any of the previous one, so that you can start reading anyone of them at any time, without feeling that you've missed.

In this 15th adventure of the series, Peter Sharp's privacy has been invaded: a person with a grudge against him knows that Peter is a devout fan of mysteries, especially those featuring Sherlock Holmes... and some events take place in banks that have traces of elements coinciding with the characters and occurrences in the Holmes stories, but the FBI doesn't think they merit investigation, so they bounce the matters down to offices of the Los Angeles District Attorney, who is Peter's ex-wife Myra, who asks Peter to look into these matters to determine whether or not these events are merely the jokes of some pranksters, or if they are hints of a serious upcoming crime that will take place. If you have ever enjoyed a Sherlock Holmes mystery, you'll enjoy reading about this gang weaves several of them into this adventure. This is the first adventure in which Peter's legal ward Suzi's huge Saint Bernard may accidentally provide information that can solve this case. You'll also enjoy trying to match wits with little Suzi (and her dog) in this case.

Gene Grossman created the popular 15-book series of Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries, featuring an adorable little 12-year-old Chinese girl named Suzi, attorney Peter Sharp's legal ward. If you've enjoyed reading mysteries and want to try your hand at creating a series on your own, you will find this book a valuable aid, because it reveals Gene's thought processes as he created the series, and provides you with valuable information that will help you with your own writing efforts. Also included are some 'insider' tips on printing, marketing, distribution, and much, much more. The book also contains the first chapters from all fourteen of the Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries, so you can have some idea of how to 'grab' a reader's attention while they're browsing in a bookstore. Full details about Gene's Peter Sharp Legal Mystery series can be seen at www.LegalMystery.com

More than half way back from Catalina Island on his boat, a man makes a ship-to-shore S.O.S. radio call to the Marina del Rey Coast Guard, but before he can describe his emergency, a gun is heard being fired on his boat and the transmission ends. When a crew lowered from the the Coast Guard helicopter board his boat and find his body, there is no other person on the boat... and no way that any other person could have boarded his boat going 30 miles an hour, and gotten away from the speeding boat. Attorney Peter Sharp's ex-wife (the recently-elected District Attorney) reluctantly asks Peter and his 12-year-old genius legal ward Suzi to assist them in determining if this was suicide or murder... and if murder, how it was accomplished. This is one of the most baffling cases that Peter and Suzi have ever tackled, and the final answer surprises everyone involved. Author Gene Grossman hasn't created a stumper like this since his adventure #7, the Magician's Legacy, because in many ways this story also contains the elements of a successful 'locked-room' mystery. The readers are invited to match wits with Suzi, to see if they can solve the mystery before she does.

There's a new detective in town, and aside from the fact that she's only 13 years old and 4 feet tall, she's made a big splash with local law enforcement agencies, who have repeatedly accepted her help in solving several difficult cases. Her name is Suzi and she's the legal ward of attorney Peter Sharp, who she lives with on a yacht in Marina del Rey California along with her huge Saint Bernard. Her amazing computer skills, coupled with all the crime-fighting software she has amassed, usually result in her solving Peter's cases before all of the adults. If you enjoy mysteries in a legal setting, you'll enjoy matching wits with this 13-year-old, to see if you can beat her to the solution... but don't be disappointed if you can't

I've written almost 50 books, of which 20 are a series of mysteries, and I've never suffered from what they call writer's block, for one main reason: I don't sit down at my computer intending to write until I have something to say... and the only thing that slows me down isn't not having something to say, it's trying to figure out the best way to say it. I don't claim to be able to sit down and instantly think of things to say, having not thought about it previously, unless I'm writing a non-fiction book on a subject I know like the back of my hand... and then I'm like an old performer that opens up the refrigerator door and when the light goes on, I do a half-hour. Not everyone has something to say, but still wants to write a book because there's a story in them fighting to get out, so the purpose of this book about there being no such thing as writer's block is what I have done to eliminate it from my writing process, and believe may help others to do the same. I don't plan to sit down and force myself to write every day for a set amount of hours just to get a certain amount of words onto the screen: I have a mental process I practice that gives me things to say so that I can't wait to get to my desk to start them flying into the computer at a rate of over 75 words a minute, of which more than half are typos... but at least they're on the paper, and for corrections - well, that's why God created proof-readers. I also go into a lot of things 'not' to do, and discuss the pros and cons of also doing a book in the audio format, for distributors like Audible.com Overall, I believe that this book covers things that the writing courses don't touch upon, because I never heard about them in the writing classes I attended. This book is the perfect book for any person that wants to write a book, and can also help writers already in the process that are having some problems along the way. It's also a fine gift for any friend or relative that has expressed a desire to write, or someone with a personality and imagination you respect that you feel should be writing a book but needs a little push... or a book like this to get them started... and I sincerely believe that all it takes to put out a decent book is to be full of baloney, and a good typist. And if you can't type, there are some pretty good voice recognition programs out there, and as for being 'full of it, ' well, I really don't know anyone that isn't. Just keep in mind that even though person thinks they've never written a book, they've actually been writing two of them since the day they learned how to talk, and the titles of those two books are, "Things I Should Have Not Said," and "Things I Should Have Said," and that means they're already authors. The book also includes a special section containing some things to mention in a book that will make people think you're smart.

Our AudioBookActorsWorkshop sessions begin with a three-hour orientation session for all nine members of each session group, but it's not uncommon for one or more of the group to be unable to complete the six-to-eight weeks it takes for us to finish the book that session group will be recording. A vacancy requires us to bring in a replacement that was previously not able to join us due to our 9-person group maximum, so we contact the next person on our waiting list - and if he or she comes in to re-record the first person's dialogue, we cannot provide the new team member with the full orientation - and that is what this book is intended to replace. Our workshop groups provide each session member with not only dialogue coaching, but because we form 3-person teams, each member gains hands-on experience in technical directing, voice acting, and script supervision. One book we are now recording has 29 voices there are parts for - so with only 9 actors, there is also a significant amount of experience to be gained in playing multi parts in a book, much like the very talented cast of the Simpson, Family Guy and other animated programs. Anyone living in an area convenient to where our workshop sessions are conducted in Marina del Rey, California that is interested in considering joining our workshops should visit our website at www.AudioBookActorsWorkshops.com and submitting the REQUEST INTERVIEW form. They will then be contacted by telephone to discuss becoming one of our session team-members. With the tremendous rise of Print on Demand technology and publishers like Amazon.com's Createspace, there is a growing need for talented voice actors able to provide audio for the independent authors to have access to talent to convert their works into audiobooks. We look forward to hearing from actors, and working with them in our workshop sessions.

If you haven't been fascinated by her brilliant Sherlock Holmes type of logic in the first 15 Peter Sharp Legal Mysteries, then now's your chance to see what little Suzi can do when she's out on her own... well, almost her own. She still lives on a luxurious yacht in Marina del Rey California with her legal Guardian, attorney Peter Sharp; and she still has her trusted bodyguard Bernie, a huge Saint Bernard - but for this adventure she doesn't want to see the adults take advantage of her superior computer skills and grab all the credit for solving the crimes, like they have in the first 15 books that chronicled Peter Sharp's high-profile criminal cases. The assignment she has given herself for this first solo adventure is to figure out the identity of a murderous serial church bomber, set up a trap for him, and have the press handy when she actually attempts a citizens' arrest, with the assist of local law enforcement. At least that's the plan. This would be an ambitious goal for an experienced team of sworn peace officers, but she believes she can pull it off with only the help of some people that she has become acquainted with in her work for attorney Peter Sharp: but this time, she will be giving out the assignments and making all the decisions. To accomplish her chosen task she must make some decisions that slightly inconvenience many of the adults she usually is quite friendly with: attorney Peter Sharp's yacht is seized by the Department of Homeland Security, District Attorney Myra Scot Sharp (Peter's bitter ex-wife) has her home computers seized by the U.S. Marshal's Office, and her boyfriend's mother is believed to be a kidnap victim. Aside from these few minor setbacks, Suzi remains determined to complete her assignment and bring this criminal to justice, notwithstanding the trail of misfortune that her closest friends are forced to endure, while she forges ahead with only one goal in mind: to put the bad guy away. And by the way, there's a large reward being offered for information leading to this criminal's arrest and conviction, but far be it from us to even hint that Suzi might be considering this monetary incentive, to serve society in the best way she can. So - sit back and fasten your seatbelt, because this first Suzi B. Mystery is about to take off, and if you can handle the turbulence along the way, you may be in better shape to survive the roller-coaster ending when the entire city is put on alert to find this little detective, as the chase to catch the bad guy is joined by several local and federal law enforcement departments who all collide at one of the busiest places in Los Angeles.

There's a new detective in town, and aside from the fact that she's only 13 years old and less than 4 feet tall, her help in solving crimes for her legal guardian attorney Peter Sharp has gotten her the respect of local law enforcement agencies. She's so good at it, that she thinks it's finally time for her to go out on her own by accepting cases not being handled by Peter's law firm. This is her second solo detective attempt - solving a problem that's plaguing the District Attorney, who just happens to be her close friend, Peter Sharp's ex-wife. While working on the case, a friend of hers met an untimely death, so she starts hatching a plan to capture the murderer and his entire gang of criminals all by herself. Having learned a lesson from her last adventure, when she was rescued by a SWAT team, to avoid too much danger this time she enlists the help of Bernie, her huge Saint Bernard. When her plan starts to come together, you'll be sitting on the edge of your seat just like the police helplessly watching on TV monitors, as Suzi tries to pull of what nobody's ever done before... without getting murdered while doing it. If you're a fan of crime-solving, you'll enjoy trying to match wits with this kid, and seeing if you can figure out what's going on before the adults involved that she constantly amazes. If you like the way she operates, you'll also get a kick out of reading about her other exploits in the "Peter Sharp Legal Mystery" series.

A man calls the police to report that he saw what he believes to be some gun flashes in the window of an apartment near his boat. When the police respond to the call they discover two dead men who look like they shot each other, and the CSI and medical examiner agree that it was a shoot-out... that they both won. The police and District Attorney can't find any motive or evidence of anyone else being involved, so they both close their files on this mutual-murder of two men who have never seen each other before, and are writing it off as a burglary gone bad... until Suzi B. reads the police report and after also noticing a Suzi manages to have the coroner call for a formal inquest hearing, at which time she promises to prove that someone has committed perjury and that the double-murder case should be re-opened. In order to prove that a witness has lied, Suzi must enlist the help of Jack Bibberman, the law firm's top investigator, Stuart Schwartzman, a friend and client who also owns an aerial photography company, and also an expert from the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, who might provide Suzi with the statistical information she needs to crack this case. Peter ex-wife Myra, the county's elected District Attorney is also in the picture this time, but for once she's on Suzi's side, but still doesn't know what's going to happen at the inquest.
