Forty-deuce

Critically-acclaimed author Stan Trybulski is back and this time he tells another chain of intriguing and mysterious events with the release of his new book Forty-Deuce, the latest entry in his Doherty series of mysteries.

Forty-Deuce follows the continuing exploits of Doherty, the rough and tumble former Brooklyn prosecutor who is now an attorney for the New York City Department of Education. Accompanied by his old Army pal Hank and his girlfriend Dana, Doherty is in a desperate search for a young teenage girl who is the crucial witness he needs in order to force a sadistic pervert out of the public school system. As they pursue their action-packed quest through the seamy streets of New York City to the staid mansions of Newport, RI, Doherty finds himself pitted against unknown forces also searching for his witness. Who will find her first and just what is at stake? Buckle on your seat belts and follow this fast-moving, gritty plot to find out, all the while enjoying the polished character treatment and razor-sharp dialogue.

The Kirkus Review Discoveries says of Forty Deuce: Trybulski weaves a tight plot. The good guys go all out to stop evildoing and the evildoers set themselves up for a dramatic fall.... Doherty is a "street savvy lawyer who roughs up a pimp on the Deuce, dusts off his Johnston & Murphy's and drives his Porsche Boxster to his manse in Connecticut, where he stretches out with his three cats and a venerable French wine."

The Kirkus Review Discoveries says that in The Ides of June, "Trybulski has infused his hero, attorney Doherty, with the time honored DNA of droll and capably violent private eyes dating back to Mickey Spillane...he has created an intriguing plot and likeable characters."

Hardboiled Magazine says: "In the Ides of June Doherty, a lawyer who works for the New York City Department of Education, gets caught up in a 30 year old cold case with plenty of dark pathways and intricate curves to keep you interested in this very readable New York murder mystery. I particularly liked the sense of humor in the writing and the interplay between Doherty and his buddy, Hank. Good stuff!"
