About this ebook

Godsend:All Jokes aside.
The sixth book of the Godsend Series, Ramona Hartley has been missing for three years and someone has to pay for it. The focus will be on Zavius Shotglass Grant, the best free-form comedian in America. But it is no laughing matter when Brian Cathcart and two of his Godsend trainees run up on a violent China-man and his two henchmen. An unexpected shootout in Ojai Valley, California, will even have readers ducking, especially when Brian goes against the norm to extinguish the situation.

Echo is training Kiandra, a fine black woman from Watts who is no stranger to danger. He agrees to help her get personal revenge against a big-time Crip member and rapist; but if you've been keeping up with Echo, you know what it will cost her. After some trickery with a Ramona Hartley witness and some gunplay in Compton, Echo and Kiandra try to surprise three Crip members in a South Lake Tahoe motel. The surprise doesn't work for the leader, and of course there will be blood in the snow. As for Ramona, her disappearance may not have been much of a mystery to someone close to her in New York.

Not wanting to keep such valuable experience to himself, Elliott did two things.First, in 2010 he forged his vision of low-cost publishing by in 21 Black Street, an eBookstore to mirror a traditional African-American themed bookstore - except it could totally cuts out a publisher's printing costs.Second, Elliott created the Well-Fed Black Writer, a blog for authors to find life-hacking tips for more efficient, effective self-publishing.

    Wait a minute. Am I understanding you correctly? Don Loftner asked while squatting closer to the paper license tag on his new Jaguar. He looked back at Echo and Kiandra Robertson. You two are private eyes, and you have zero authority to make me answer your questions? He was an average-sized white guy dressed in a sweater and slacks. He had a screwdriver in his right hand, about to replace the paper tag with the metal one that was near his loafers.

    Echo looked to his left, right, and then directly at Don’s modest but comfortable home. He and Kiandra, a 26-year-old black woman who was one of three Godsend trainees, stood in Don’s driveway in a quiet neighborhood of Stockton, California.

    Don said, Three years ago, I answered every question the cops threw at me about Ramona’s disappearance. The cops obviously cleared me; so if you got any questions, why don’t you go ask the police?

    Echo rushed him, slamming a foot square in the middle of Don’s ass. When Don’s head banged against the trunk of the Jaguar, Echo stepped on the hand that held the screwdriver, grinding it to the cement driveway, and breaking two of Don’s knuckles.

    Don let out a yelp and said, Okay, okay!

    Echo said, Release the screwdriver or get ready to use it in a gunfight.

    I . . . I can’t because you’re standing on my hand.

    Kiandra scanned the neighborhood again. She was dressed in a pantsuit and wore loafers with soft bottoms.

    Echo took a step back and watched the man abandon the tool. Now get the fuck up and invite us inside.

    Less than two minutes later, the three of them were standing in Don’s kitchen. Echo and Kiandra slipped on some transparent latex gloves. Echo said, Have a seat. This might take a while.

    Don sat at his kitchen table.

    Kiandra removed a handgun from the shoulder holster beneath her sports coat. Put your hands on top of the table and keep them there.

    Don followed orders. He stared at his right hand and the bruises. Damn thing was throbbing, or rather, the two broken knuckles were.

    Echo walked over to the refrigerator and opened it. The lady got a few questions for you, not necessarily the same questions the cops asked three years ago. He grabbed an unopened half-gallon carton of orange juice.

    Kiandra said, You told the cops that you dated Ramona Hartley for only three weeks and two days. How long did it take for you to get her in bed?

    I’m . . . I’m thinking it was the fourth day.

    And in those three weeks, how many times did you screw her?

    He shrugged. Two times.

    Kiandra saw Echo drinking straight from the orange juice carton.

    Echo held the carton out for her. "You wanna hit
