""...It's laugh out loud funny, not since Carl Hiassen's 'Tourist Season' debut has there been a novel with such superb comic timing and laugh out loud lines... The writing is seamless, true artistry ad a joy to read..Forget Prozac, or even that double of Bourbon, this is what feeling good is all about.""
-Ken Bruen, Shamus Award Winning Author of The Guards
"Schreck is a seriously funny guy."
-JA Konrath, author of Rusty Nail
"In the boxing match of life I want Duffy Dombrowski as my ring man. This is one hell of a debut novel and Schreck cancount me as a fan from this point forward. ON THE ROPES is easily one of the best five books I’ve read this year. "
-Jon Jordan, Crimespree Magazine

What's New
WOOFSTOCK was fantastic! We made lots of new basset friends and the three Schreck hounds were a huge hit, especially puppy Roxie!
What was even more special was the fact that On the Ropes was able to raise close to $300 for the rescue group!
We are already looking forward to next year!

After twenty-five years in prison for murdering a couple of cheerleaders, a quarterback, and the class president, "Hackin'" Howard Rheinhart gets discharged. His case is assigned to Schlitz-drinking, Elvis-loving social worker and pro boxer Duffy Dombrowski. Soon, local high-school VIPs start showing up dead and Howard is nowhere to be found.
Duffy throws himself into Howard's defense while juggling a few problems of his own—like a huge upcoming boxing match, a new hormonal girlfriend, the unsolicited devotion of a goofy karate kid, and the ongoing misadventures of Allah-King, Duffy's Muslim basset hound.
