Order of Jim Richards Books
Jim Richards is the protagonist in a series of mystery novels by American novelist Bob Moats. Jim Richards is a single man, unemployed and lives with his parents. He’s also recently turned 60 years old and forced to admit to himself that he is now a senior citizen. When foul play occurs around him, Jim falls into becoming an amateur sleuth, teaming up with his buddy Buck, a big biker dude. Throughout the series, Richards travels across the country, solving murders involving dominatrixes, mistresses, magic and strip clubs. He is referred to as the “senior citizen sleuth.”
