I’ve been wanting to write a series to highlight our men and women in blue for quite some time, and I even started with a series called Uncertain, but I realized the novellas didn’t do the stories justice. Then the idea came to write a series set in East Texas, so I made up the small city of Peculiar, Texas, and set my story in a place with a small college and a beautiful lake. These stories are the remake of the original Uncertain series, expanded and all new characters and details.
The stories in this series have instances of real occurrences that happen to uniform cops on a regular basis. I tried to portrait the real world as much as possible but gave myself artistic license to change details to fit the stories.
Yes, it’s true that small towns don’t have a full detective unit, and the officers are required to investigate major crimes. Sometimes they are assisted by other agencies, but many times the crimes are investigated by the local cops. These are the stories of the police officers of Peculiar, Texas.
