Winner of the 2013 Hollywood Book Festival Award for Genre-Based Fiction and a finalist in the Mystery (Adult Fiction) category of ForeWord Reviews 2013 Book of the Year Award, Border Field Blues follows the 2006 release of Fayman’s critically-acclaimed first Rolly Waters novel, Black’s Beach Shuffle (ISBN 9780595402670).

In this original and compelling mystery set in the back country along the San Diego-Tijuana border, a violent encounter between a young border-crosser and an angry bandit creates a secret and shocking bond between the boy and the bandit’s dumbfounded daughter. But when recovering guitarist and reluctant private detective Rolly Waters arrives at Border Field Park early one morning, he’s only there to help his bird-watching friend Max find the vandals who’ve destroyed a sensitive bird nesting area. Feeling less than optimistic about nabbing the perpetrators, Rolly begins his due diligence, crossing paths with a local border vigilante, a tormented vaquero, and an aging rock groupie. When police detective Bonnie Hammond hands him a coroner’s report, he knows it’s turned deadly.

As their separate cases dovetail into one, Rolly and Bonnie negotiate a prickly partnership, dragged into a dark world of human trafficking and abuse. Bonnie presses ahead with her official investigation, while Rolly turns to his wisecracking network of bohemian friends, trying to connect the red-haired seductress on a banned album cover to a popular video game. As opposing political organizations mobilize for a confrontation in the shadow of the Tijuana’s Bullring-By-The-Sea, Rolly races to save a willful young Mexican girl, his only link to the crimes. Amid band gigs, family issues and personal temptation, the guitar-slinging detective rocks on, putting his sleuthing skills, and life, to the test.

“I wanted to create a new way for readers to interact with mystery novels,” said Fayman. “This App Edition provides readers with multi-media access to the story-behind-the-story, which deepens the reading experience and allows readers to more fully engage in the plot and connect with the characters and the book’s setting, as well as other readers and the author.”
