Synopsis

Standing Too Close to the Flame is Book One in the trilogy, The Next American Hero Series, a fictionalized account of the career of District Attorney Tony Wallace who successfully prosecuted 173 murder cases in his eight years in office. His remarkable skill and courage led to lofty political aspirations. His penchant for Jack Daniels and bar conquests (his stress relievers of choice) led to a roller coaster life and a series of adventures that demanded chronicling. Tony is a true hero, unequaled in his commitment to bringing criminals to justice, and a living testimony to the price such courage and skill exacted.

À propos de l'auteur

Steve Buttress never hung around the tall part of the bell-shaped curve. He's always been more interested in the guy who was picked last and sent to play right field than he was in the handsome, star shortstop. Cleverly disguised as a community and economic developer, he scoured the country for forty years, from Ohio to Delaware, Montana, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Florida, searching out interesting characters. Freed now by age and good fortune from the pursuits required of a breadwinner, he's embarked on a new career...chronicling the characters he's met along the way.He's got stories too unbelievable to be fiction, a style that can't pass up the chance to see the humor in every situation, and a voice that hits just the right pitch and tone to move his readers into the shotgun seat of these adventures.
