 Gabe Bergeron Short Stories

The first of a series of short stories is set to be published in early March. Naturally, they will feature Gabriel Henri Bergeron, CPA, his relatives, friends, co-workers, and, of course, Corentin Georges Poirier, FBI special agent extraordinaire and Gabe's inamorato. Not to mention the villains Gabe seems to run into with distressing frequency.


This adventure begins with Cory and Matt Bornheimer, Cory's FBI partner, expressing an interest in Gabe's first case...his first case involving the forces of law and order. He had cast his mind back to his student days...really not that long ago at all...and recalled a spot of grand theft auto perpetrated upon Aunt Flo.

 


Naturally, Gabe had sallied forth to discover the truth...selflessly, valiantly....without regard for danger to life and limb.

The gate was closed so he couldn't drive up to the house. The air was motionless, thick and oppressive with heat and humidity and mosquitoes. The river was flowing languidly without a ripple on its surface. A foursome of young ...

    New Gabe Bergeron Mystery!     Gabe & Cory's Momentous Misadventure   He called Aunt Flo to give her the news. It was necessary to stress the positives about this, because Aunt Flo didn't like it when he went sleuthing. She was his great-aunt Florence Barnes and had taken him in when she'd returned from thirty years in Cuba. He had lived with her and her comrade, Ezmeralda Gutierrez, from the age of thirteen until he had gone off to college. “Aunt Flo?” “Yes, Gabriel. How are you?” “Splendid! And not just because I finally got to see Cory's office, tour the Hoover Building, and meet Micah 'Fab' Ott and Neema Clemens, who also share the office.”   Aunt Flo giggle-cackled. “What else, Dear?” “It has finally happened.” “I need more, Gabriel.” “Right. Well, I've been briefed by two FBI agents about a FBI case. The veil has been torn asunder, and I have been made privy to FBI secrets.” “The two agents being Cory and Matt.” ...
