The bodies are piling up around Los Angeles and Matt's on the case. The victims all seem to have one thing in common--Mother Goose. Each victim has a name similar to the name in the nursery rhymes and they are finding their demise much the same as the Mother Goose characters. Can Matt stay ahead of this killer and try to figure out who his next victim will be? He has to work fast.

Reception to this story was good, but several readers were disappointed that it wasn't longer. They wanted a novel. Well, novels run 70,000 words and there just isn't enough material for a novel. However, I did add more material and more than doubled it's original size. And I added illustrations for each chapter. This version ended with more than 20,000 words and the story is much fuller and more exciting. See if you don't agree. It'll be a well-spent 99 cents.
