Two Novellas

About the Book

Oh, Brother

Arnold Gordon thought when he retired from the NYPD, he was through with detective work. But when his older brother Mortimer’s life is in danger, Arnold rallies to his side. Along the way, the arcane Fermat’s Theorem, the Israeli Mossad and the Satmar community are involved in an international intrigue. Although the free spirited Arnold and the stiff necked Mortimer had never been close as brothers, danger brings them together to solve the greatest challenge either of them has ever faced.

The Fund Raiser

Harry Wolfe is middle aged wheeler dealer whose penchant for the quick buck lands him in hilarious trouble. While other fund raisers raise money for good causes, Harry will promote any charity, no matter how obscure or lame brained, that promises a good pay off. A twist of fate gives Harry the opportunity to make big money although it also gives him the opportunity to become a cadaver. The path Harry treads towards his goal of staying alive is a delightfully crooked one. His film maker daughter Isobel’s involvement with a conventional veterinarian is a unique romance she is sure that her father will approve of, provided Harry stays alive long enough to give it his blessings.

About the Author

What can one say about Stanley Hart that hasn’t been said already? Some people have called him the next Mark Twain and some people don’t talk to him at all. He has had a successful career in television (The Carol Burnet Show), theater (The Mad Show), film (Move!) and magazines (Mad Magazine). Although Hart could easily rest on his laurels (two Emmys), he now pursues fame and adulation shamelessly as a fiction writer. He hopes you like his two novellas but if you don’t, try writing one yourself if you think it’s that easy.
