About This Book
REVISED EDITION - Now Professionally Edited and Proof Read by Story Perfect Editing Service I called this the REVISED EDITION, because release of this version of the story, marks the beginning of a new era for myself as a writer/author. This is the first book of mine that has gone through a Professional Assessment, Professional Edit, and Professional Proofreading. Since the story grew by over 7,000 words, it is being released as a new book, with a new ASIN/ISBN. Welcome to the new Jasper, Street-Fighter, and Me Detective Agency. I say "new" because until just recently its name was the Jasper and Me Detective Agency. Forgive me, and allow me to introduce myself. I am "Me," aka Maggie McKenzie, Major, USMC Ret. I am permanently 39 years old, and retired from the Marines early when my father was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease. I was part of the Military Police within the Marines, and a dog handler. Thanks to changes in the law regarding K-9 members of the Marines and their partners, Jasper, my amazing border collie, was allowed to retire with me. We shared two tours together in Afghanistan, and thanks to Jasper's amazing nose, and other abilities, we never lost a member to an IED. We have worked together so much, and so often under high stress and often dangerous situations, that we were able to operate, often without the use of any verbal commands. I received a call yesterday from a Ms. Candie Strong, who asked me if I could meet her for dinner, to talk over a case she would like me to take on. I of course accepted her offer, and after taking care of a minor disturbance at my own house, I managed to make it to the dinner meeting. Candie, certainly looked sweet when I first met her, and by the end of the evening I had decided that Candie, while a strange flavor, was quite sweet. Join Jasper, Street-Fighter, and Me as we take on the case to find out who is following Candie. I am sure, that like the three of us discovered, you will find agree with my title for this story of "Candie is not Always Sweet."
