Get a Free Crime Story

Gritty. Strange. Character-driven fiction from the mind of BH Shepherd.

A young hustler and his rock band of ex-cons are on their way to the gig of a lifetime, pursued by both the law and the past. A classic tale of bad men who make good music, and how stories become song.


What You Get

“Sweet Benny and the Sanchez Penitentiary Band.” A complete short story. It is about a 10-20 minute read.

Free Sample

If you enjoy the antics of Sweet Benny and his bandmates, there is a whole novel about them you can read next.

Updates

Occasional email updates when I release new work. No spam or ads; I hate that stuff as much as you do.



About the Author

I write crime fiction, weird westerns, and surreal cyberpunk. The strange stuff that doesn’t fit neatly into one genre. Stories full of flawed characters, sharp dialogue, and detailed worldbuilding.
