Message From the Author:

I must first mention that the inspiration for both Kenny & Chuck comes from a real person.
Loving father, husband, brother and friend: Kenny LaValle.
Kenny is a good looking young man. I liked his style of long blond hair to shape a soft look for the Kenneth Wise character. Kenny also has a knack for talking to people. He is always making people laugh with typical conversation making every situation fun and comfortable. I thought this was an important quality for a detective to have a comfort zone where people are willing to talk to him. Especially considering he is a private investigator and not a police officer with an authority during interrogations.
The other side of Kenny is that he was a weight lifter and body builder. I like this side of him. However, it doesn't fit the certain softness I give to Kenneth Wise. Thus, the brute strength and tough exterior is show as Chuck Browne. Being Wise & Browne work togther, as a team I was able to write them both as my friend Kenny. Now that you have some background on how the character was created, I hope you appreciate the character a little more.

I would like to thank everyone who did, or will, purchase Questionable Answers. This is part II of the a trilogy called "The Kenneth Wise Chronocles." If you happen to have missed Homicidal Suicide, buy it here! For those of you who wanted more from Kenny, you will be glad to know there is more character development in this addition. This particular story was (so far) the most fun to write as I too had to create the riddles as well as solve them multiple ways. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.
