Item Description

Enjoy the fun and engaging trilogy The Bike Cop, written by local author, James Bruner. All three books are signed and will be a delight to read in the upcoming winter months!

Port Talbot is a tourist trap in the “summah” located on the southern coast of Maine. The wealth and pedigree of the summer folk is legendary with their cottages on the rocky bluffs. The population quadruples from June to September. The traffic snarls around the cedar-shingled shops in the port, bringing things to a standstill. Enter the college-aged bicycle policeman. In the summer of ’77, the chief of police has chosen David “Digger” Davenport, the son of one of the richest summer families who winter in Lake Placid, New York. Digger’s history of solving crime starts in chapter one in a flashback to when he was eleven years old and when he went fishing alone and hooked the partially decomposed body of the chef of the Brigantine Hotel. From this experience, as he matures, he develops a penchant for solving crime and enrolls in courses and trainings in college that prepare him for the calamity that lies ahead in his summer job as Port Talbot’s bike cop.

James H.K. Bruner is an attorney admitted in Maine, Massachusetts, New York, and Florida who weaves his experiences from the legal battles in these jurisdictions into his stories. He enjoys combining the “legalese” with his experiences growing up in the summers in Kennebunkport, Maine and raising six children with his wife, Gretchen. “There is no shortage of material when you have a large family that lives in two different places every year.” James practices law out of his Tallahassee office and writes novels from his camp in the Port. He hopes that The Bike Cop series will be enjoyed by both young and old.
