The Big Tilt
No Good Deed Goes UnpunishedThe war in Vietnam didn't kill Peter O'Keefe. Neither did his run-in with ruthless crime boss "Mr. Canada" in the Arizona desert. But chasing after justice in his own hometown just might.A year after the private detective uncovered a criminal ring disguised as a mink farm in the Ozarks, O'Keefe is back home and back in trouble. A high school crush of O'Keefe's turns up dead, but the details don't add up. His pal, Mike Harrigan, has put his trust in the wrong people and now stands accused of crimes that could put him in the slammer. And O'Keefe? The mafia has put a price on his head.In their search for the truth, O'Keefe and his team will have to venture into the criminal underworld of their city, each step forward bringing them closer to the edge. As trouble begins creeping closer to home, O'Keefe must decide if he's willing to pay the cost of justice - before someone else makes the decision for him."...Flanigan manages to conjure deft, hard-boiled, but literary prose that's reminiscent of Raymond Chandler's best work. A gritty and eloquent crime novel." - Kirkus Reviews
Mink Eyes
The year is 1986-the tarnished heart of the decade of greed.Private detective Peter O'Keefe, a physically scarred and emotionally battered Vietnam vet, is hired by childhood friend and attorney Mike Harrigan to investigate what appears to be a petty mink farm Ponzi scheme in the Ozarks. But quickly O'Keefe finds himself snared in a vicious web of money laundering, cocaine smuggling, and murder-all at the behest of a mysterious mobster only referred to as Mr. Canada. Also caught up in Mr. Canada's illicit network is the exquisite Tag Parker, who seems to dance between roles as the woman of O'Keefe's dreams-and his nightmares.
Tenebrae
"Mink Eyes" introduces us to Dan Flanigan the novelist. "Tenebrae" shows us another side of Dan - the poet. The lead poem in this collection, "Tenebrae: A Memoir of Love and Death," is a lovely bracelet of verse and prose poems that link brilliantly together in a gripping narrative and wrenching emotional journey through the illness and death of his wife. Other poems in the book - including several snapshot portraits of Dan's extended family under the title "The Irish in America" - reflect this same grappling with the fundamental issues of our lives - loss, change, growth, hope, despair and acceptance, reflecting throughout a compassionate embrace of the human condition. These are truly poems for the people - plain but exquisitely crafted, direct as a dagger, and expressed in a language that is both elegant and easy to understand at the same time. They reach from the heart to the heart.
An American Tragedy
In the scorching summer of 1988, amidst the frenzy of the Satanic Panic gripping the nation, private detective O'Keefe finds himself thrust into a trial like no other. As he strives to establish his fledgling agency, the last thing he anticipates is being drawn into a harrowing legal battle. But when Virginia Montrose, "Miss Ginny" to her students and his daughter Kelly's most beloved teacher, is accused of heinous crimes against her current and former students, O'Keefe faces a moral quandary unlike any before. Despite the risks and the overwhelming stigma, O'Keefe's encounter with the shadowy child protection figures driving the prosecution sparks a fierce determination to seek truth and justice. In this gripping tale of courage and conviction, O'Keefe's resolve is put to the ultimate test as he confronts the darkest facets of human nature and dares to challenge the prevailing hysteria. O'Keefe must summon every ounce of his strength to uncover the shocking truth while struggling to reverse the relentless tide of injustice. No Good Deed Goes Unpunished
