Jack Is Back! Yes, Jack Palms is back to bring you more of the action, suspense and excitement that you came to expect from the hit podiobook Jack Wakes Up.
In This Is Life, Jack Palms finds himself caught in a working relationship with none other than the San Francisco police. When one of their own gets killed and corruption invades the Hall of Justice, Sgt. Mills Hopkins hires Jack to poke around. Is Jack ready for his own brand of police work? Is San Francisco?
Follow Jack Palms as he tries to figure out if the life of a Private Eye fits him, hunts a cop-killer, and tries to solve a series of murders that leads him into the heart of San Francisco's sex trade.

Only up to episode three, but it's great so far. I like the additional character voices, and sound effects.By: Chris
Way better than the first one in my opinion. It seems both Jack and the author have really hit their stride. The scenes were intense, the story was tightly woven and the whole thing was fast paced.By: Barry Bounous
Good work. I actually like this better than "Jack wakes up". More focus. Better character development. Still great action scenes. Way to go!
