Uncle and Ants by Marc Jedel

Rating: WARTY!

Everyone's named 'Marc' now so as not to use the commonplace 'Mark' but since everyone uses it, 'Mark' is actually the lesser commonplace of the two these days! LOL! "Did someone orchestrate the accident that put Marty Golden's sister in the hospital? A quirky uncle becomes an amateur sleuth as Marty takes care of his nieces while scouring Silicon Valley for a killer!" How is he doing both at the same time? No, seriously, I really want to know. What the evidence shows here is that this idiot guy needs the definition of 'taking care of' clearly explained to him. The key turn-off words here are 'quirky' and 'sleuth' - both serious no-no's for a novel.
