The John Ceepak Jersey Shore mysteries, by Chris GrabensteinRead about another entry on the list.
The John Ceepak mysteries show us the seedy side of the Jersey Shore, which is refreshing for those who might be leery of all the nostalgia and warm fuzzies that come with books set in classic American amusement parks. The happier a place seems, the deeper its secrets, right? The narrator is a 24-year-old part-time cop named Danny Boyle, but the story’s all about Ceepak, an ex-soldier with plenty of demons. The first book in the series, Tilt-a-Whirl, is everything you’d want from a mystery: a billionaire, a kidnapping, and plenty of Bruce Springsteen references.
