Loner-Style Justice: A Joseph Tugger Novella

Strange things are happening at the Iowa State College of Applied Bookkeeping, Farmery, and Automotive Repair. Take your pick. There's the epidemic of male loneliness plaguing the students, the carrier pigeons flooding the skies at all hours with odd packages out for delivery, and the secret criminal empire that meets twice a week to discuss the destruction of Joseph Tugger.

Who's Tugger?

At 6'9", 290 lbs., Tugger's the guy you call when you have no other options. Not because he's bad at what he does-he's the very best. If anyone can get to the bottom of this mystery, Tugger can.

But the clock is ticking.

Graduation is tonight, and for some reason the dean has it out for him, threatening expulsion like it's going out of style. Tugger vows to crack the case-but because his life is a screwball comedy, a rogue's gallery of weirdoes, creeps, and yahoos stand in his way.

MIKE MARSBERGEN released his first book, ANOTHER LIFE AND OTHER MINDBENDING SCI-FI STORIES, in November 2024. Now he's back, and very much afraid of being typecast as the guy who only writes mindbending sci-fi stories. So he's taken up comedy.

Call it a comedic mystery or a mysterious comedy, either way LONER-STYLE JUSTICE is the perfect new read for fans of Tim Dorsey and Ben Rehder-and for those who see the world as one big cartoon!
