Casablanca Caper

It all began with that darned toy robot. If it hadn’t caught Rico Morgan’s attention he might have been able to avoid all the shooting, chasing, and the pack of lies that led him to Casablanca. But when Rico Morgan opened the box and took out the toy robot with its problems, he was hooked.
The story takes the dapper detective to a murder scene in Atlanta, then off to visit Elon in California, and then to ancient Casablanca, city of mystery in North Africa. There he joins forces with two women just in from their Australian adventures to chase down a hoodoo. They go to Portugal and then quickly to Timbuktu in the heart of the Sahara.
That desert town holds a few stunning surprises for the gang, not the least of which is a killer robot that chases Rico through the black night, finding him no matter where he hides. Can Rico survive and get back to the peace and tranquility of his wilderness home? Come along for the ride, but hold on...there’s gonna be some pounding!

A brief interview with Ray Ordorica:

What took so long for the third book?

I had other activities that took my time last summer, such as two solid months of rebuilding and modifying a complex carport roof, followed by the untimely death of one of my cats. That knocked all the ambition out of me for the remainder of the year.

We see a Charles Daly HP on the cover...?

Every one of my books has a gun that’s used by Mr. Morgan in the book. Rico has a great collection of firearms. He doesn’t much like the smaller calibers, but you never know. Circumstances sometimes dictate carrying an oddball.

What’s coming up?

I hear rumours there may be some activity in one of the far-western states in the near future.

Anything else new?

Nope! Gotta run now. Please buy my books, and for goodness’ sake, please REVIEW them!
