Books like Bright Futures by Stuart M. Kaminsky


Lew Fonesca, a lovable everyman whose knack for fixing problems has earned him the respect of Sarasota’s residents, sits at the center of two intertwined mysteries. He is hired by nineteen‑year‑old Ronnie Graeill to investigate the death of a curmudgeon who opposed state‑sponsored school funding. At the same time, Lew is drawn into a tense blackmail scheme targeting a semi‑retired singer famed for children’s songs. His methodical, unorthodox approach brings the town’s eccentric characters and hidden tensions to light as he navigates the complexities of crime, politics, and community in Florida’s close‑knit society.
