Dick Thornby is not Hollywood's idea of a spy. In his rough and tumble job there are no tailored Italian suits, no bimbos eager to please, and no massive underground fortresses built by evil overlords seeking world domination - just an endless series of sinister threats to the safety and security of the billions of mundane citizens of the planet. Sure, Dick's tough and he knows a few tricks to help him get out of a tight spot, even if his boss accuses him of over-reliance on an abundance of explosives.

Dick Thornby is not Hollywood's idea of a spy. He's just a regular guy with some skills for a job that needs doing. He also has a wife, a teenaged kid, a mortgage, and all the mundane problems associated with life. His friends from the New Jersey subdivision where he lives all think he is a wastewater treatment consultant. But instead of dealing with the dirty job of processing sewage in third world countries, he is really on missions, some mundane and dirty, others of vital importance and even dirtier.

Morse Code Mysteries and Missives includes three stories, each one of which is first presented in the audio dots and dashes of Morse Code, then read by voice actor Bruce Pilkenton. The purpose of this book is not to teach you Morse Code; it is to let those who have basic coding skills and experience with Morse Code practice on something more interesting than short phrases, kid’s books, and dry practice manuals. The software by which many listen to the audio dots and dashes permits adjustment of the speed of transmission, generally at specifed increments from half to twice the default speed.
