INNOCENCE AND AVARICE

by Marshall Huffman

Overview

Indianapolis Detective, John Logan, responded to what appeared to be a simple missing person case. Before long, it was clear to him and to the FBI agents taking over the case that kidnapping, corporate espionage, and murder are all intertwined. Logan just can’t let go and refuses to let the FBI shut him out.

All of the evidence points to Jim Ashton, co-owner of a computer software company but it just appears too tidy a package of evidence to suit Logan. It looks like he is wrong this time, when the man he believes may be innocent escapes from the police.

The fugitive doesn’t know who to trust, but turns to Star reporter, Carrie Brown. Carrie decides he might be innocent and suggests that he turn himself in to Detective Logan. He feels compelled to remain on the run until he can figure out who set him up and kidnapped his wife and the wife of his trusted business partner.

Logan solves the case in his usual methodical manner in spite of being stonewalled by the FBI.
This is the first of the “Logan Files.” It introduces the reader to a cast of characters that will become like old friends as you read the subsequent “Logan Files.

It is a fast paced read with plenty of intrigue.

About the Author

Marshall W. Huffman did not set out to be a published author. Most of his writing was for personal satisfaction. His wife, Susan, consistently tried to talk him into submitting his work for publication but the idea of rejection deterred him. It wasn't until 2012 that he finally gave in and at her insistence e-published his first book, THE END. That almost turned out to be a disaster when he accidently published the rough draft instead of the finished book. After that little setback and of course, republishing the finished manuscript, his writing career has really taken off.

Marshall’s first trilogy is THE EVENT and consists of THE END, THE BEGINNING, and THE REVELATION. He has also published a series of books entitled: THE LOGAN FILES with a central cast of characters. In addition, he has another series entitled: THE NORRIS FILES with its own set of central characters. He enjoys writing mysteries, techno-thrillers, and Si-Fi.

Marshall was born in Bainbridge, Georgia and grew up in Indiana. After spending eight years in the Navy, he attended Ball State University, earning a B.S. degree in Business.

During and after college, he was involved in the restaurant business and spent the next twenty-five years in all types of venues, eventually owing his own fine dining restaurant. After years of long hours, he decided on a career change. He attended Eastern Illinois University earning a MBA. Because of his business background, Eastern Illinois University asked him to teach in the hospitality management program. He was recruited from Eastern to Parkland College and soon took over as the Program Director for the Hospitality Program. During his tenure there, he became a chef and had a television show called Cooking around the World with Chef Marshall and taught a series of cooking classes for Continuing Education as well.

Professor Huffman retired from teaching along with his wife, Dr. Susan Huffman, to Tampa Bay Florida.
