"Some people are born criminals. Others are driven to it."

There could be a kernel of truth to that statement. Perhaps some people, ordinary, regular law-abiding citizens, are doing their part, working their jobs, when something happens that tilts their world.

Consider Simon Ellis. A quiet, steady guy. He keeps his head down, always working in the background, taking care of business.
Until that fateful day.

When something comes to light that changes how he sees the world.

Will Simon just let it go and continue as before?

Will he be driven to something else?
​
Something criminal.

What Readers Are Saying!

Mark Love’s newest is Part-Time Criminal, a novella that is impossible to put down. Love’s impressive story-telling skills are on full display as he makes the reader a willing accomplice to a fast-moving tale of revenge and reinvention (as well as a virtual primer on DIY computer crime). As always with a writer named Love, there is a dollop of romance here to further sweeten an already delicious plot. A wonderful addition to his growing body of excellent crime fiction. Highly recommended.
