Record Scratch

There are two types of men you must fear in this world: Men who have everything to lose-and men like me. Its a case Trevor Galloway doesnt want. Its certainly a case he doesnt need. The client-the sister of a murdered musician-seems a bit off. She expects Galloway to not only solve her brothers homicide but recover a vinyl record she believes could ruin his reputation. Galloway knows he should walk away. He should simply reach over the desk give back the envelope of cash that he admittedly needs and walk away. However when the client closes the meeting by putting a gun under her chin and pulling the trigger his sense of obligation drags him down a path he may not be ready to travel. As Galloway pieces together the final days of rock and roll legend Jimmy Spartan he struggles to sort through his own issues to include having the occasional hallucination. Hes not certain how bad his condition has deteriorated but when Galloway is attacked in broad daylight by men he assumed were figments of his imagination he realizes the threat is real and his condition is putting him and anyone nearby at risk. The stoic demeanor that earned Galloway the nickname The Tin Man is tested as he reunites with an old flame becomes entangled in a Secret Service investigation and does battle with old enemies. A story divided into twelve songs from Jimmy Spartans final album. Praise for RECORD SCRATCH: Record Scratch shocks you out of your ordinary groove.
