M. Anthony Phillips presents the debut of his hot new Private Detective series. Vietnam veteran Sam Phillips follows in the footsteps of his father into the world of private investigations. It’s the end of the Vietnam War in 1976 during the Fall of Siagon and a battle-worn Sam has just taken over his father’s company after his death.
With his office above a seedy bar off Hollywood and Vine, Sam and his new assistant Constance Turner go weeks before they land their first case. With the help of his troubled friend Armstrong Jones—fresh out of prison for nearly killing two men, they are paid by an old friend Michelle Yamada of protecting her little brother Ken, a Yakuza gang member being hunted by a rival gang, the Yokohama Black Rebels who killed their father—a crime boss. Chasing Ken is the notorious boss Hiroshi Ito, a sadistic killer like no other who has killed nearly all the Yakuza bosses in Little Tokyo.
In the meantime Sam finds out he’s the father of a five-year-old Amerasian kid from Vietnam—dropped off at his doorstep in the middle of the afternoon. In protecting Ken, people close to Sam are getting killed off, including detective friends who are trying to capture Hiroshi for murder. When things start to not add up about Ken, Sam and Armstrong begin to wonder if they’re being played the fool. With the body count adding up and Hiroshi getting closer to his target, Sam and Armstrong must go on the offensive before it’s too late.

Michael Anthony Phillips was born in St. Louis, Missouri on July 20, 1961. His father worked as a Private Investigator and was an avid classic movie watcher who kept Michael up late at night watching movies with him. As a kid Michael and his brother Sam stayed up late nights listening to the Mystery Theater the radio that carved Michael’s fondness for great storytelling.

Michael enjoyed playing Baseball as a youth and played all the way through College and being invited to several Major League camps for tryouts. Affected by the tragic death of Bruce Lee on his birthday in 1973, Michael became an avid Martial Artist and when he knew it was now or never to follow his dreams, Michael left his hometown to be an actor in Hollywood, and to study martial arts with Bruce Lee’s former students in the late 90’s through the next decade.

After working on countless television shows, videos, films, and commercials, he decided to try his hand at writing, and started screenwriting and writing short stories for various literary magazines.

Michael’s mother played a key role in his life while he pursued his craft, providing a place to stay when he came home from the West Coast, and peace of mind from multiple distractions.

After a decade in Hollywood, M. Anthony decided to put his acting aspirations on hold and returned to St. Louis to write fulltime. Having a passion to write about things that today’s Hollywood fail to grasp; M. Anthony is inspired to do things his way.

Now working on his fourth novel, M. Anthony Phillips hopes his name becomes synonymous with all the great writers of the present and the past, and to inspire a generation of writers of his own.
