The First Rule of Ten (A Tenzing Norbu Mystery #1)
“Don’t ignore intuitive tickles lest they reappear as sledgehammers.”
That’s the first rule of Ten.
Tenzing Norbu (“Ten” for short) -ex-monk and soon-to-be ex-cop-is a protagonist unique to our times. In The First Rule of Ten, the first installment in a three-book detective series, we meet this spiritual warrior who is singularly equipped, if not occasionally ill-equipped, as he takes on his first case as a private investigator in Los Angeles.

Tenzing Norbu (“Ten” for short) -ex-monk and soon-to-be ex-cop-is a protagonist unique to our times. In The First Rule of Ten, the first installment in a three-book detective series, we meet this spiritual warrior who is singularly equipped, if not occasionally ill-equipped, as he takes on his first case as a private investigator in Los Angeles.
Growing
up in a Tibetan Monastery, Ten dreamed of becoming a modern-day
Sherlock Holmes. So when he was sent to Los Angeles to teach meditation,
he joined the LAPD instead. But as the Buddha says, change is
inevitable; and ten years later, everything is about to
change—big-time—for Ten. One resignation from the police force, two
bullet-wounds, three suspicious deaths, and a beautiful woman later, he
quickly learns that whenever he breaks his first rule, mayhem follows.
Set in the modern-day streets and canyons of Los Angeles, The First Rule of Ten
is at turns humorous, insightful, and riveting—a gripping mystery as
well as a reflective, character-driven story with intriguing
life-lessons for us all.
The Second Rule Of Ten (A Tenzing Norbu Mystery #2)
“Beware your old, limited models of thinking: no matter how safe they make you feel, eventually you will become their prisoner.” That’s the second rule of Ten.
Tenzing “Ten” Norbu—ex-monk and ex-cop—is back! In The Second Rule of Ten, the next book in the Dharma Detective series, our daring detective faces a dead Hollywood producer, an ailing philanthropist’s missing sister, and a way-too-sexy pathologist, who are all wreaking havoc with his serenity—and that’s before the arrival of cartel king and arch-nemesis Chaco Morales. As Ten moves deeper into the case, things get personal when his two best friends in Dharamshala go missing, and his former LAPD partner, Bill, turns oddly distant. Ten’s journey for the truth propels him from gang-ridden, dangerous Boyle Heights in east LA to Lhasa, Tibet, and back again. He must wrestle with more than one limiting thought and inner enemy if he is to identify, much less overcome, his rapidly multiplying outer ones. The clues to solving this complex cluster of mysterious events are sprinkled all over the City of Angels, but the ultimate answers, as always for Ten, lie inside

The Third Rule Of Ten: A Tenzing Norbu Mystery (A Tenzing Norbu Mystery #3)
Keep current with the
truth: we’re only as weak as our secrets— especially the ones we keep
from ourselves. That’s the Third Rule of Ten. As the go-to private
detective for a bevy of high-profile clients, our beloved ex-Buddhist
monk, ex-LAPD officer, Tenzing "Ten” Norbu, has finally found his
stride. With his beautiful pathologist girlfriend, a healthy bank
account, and a steady stream of clients, courtesy of middle-aged movie
star Mac Gannon and rising political star Bets McMurtry, Ten’s life is
bursting with activity. But it’s not all joy and happiness. The death of
his father and a growing abundance of secrets—both personal and
professional—leave Ten feeling an unexpected depth of sorrow and
confusion. Even with the emotional turmoil, nothing can stop Ten from
taking the case when McMurtry’s housekeeper goes missing. The
investigation leads him down a dangerous path littered with bodies,
untraceable prescription drugs, and human organ trafficking. But nothing
is as shocking as the realization that the mastermind behind it all is
none other than—Chaco Morales, a criminal that slipped through Ten’s
hands once already. The Third Rule of Ten will have readers on the edges
of their seats, as they learn, along with Ten, that there is a fine
line between healthy privacy and unhealthy secrecy. Knowing the
difference may just determine whether Ten will stop Chaco or lose
himself.
