About this listen

Single Dad Private Detective Jobe Carson has a double dilemma: Dig into a cold case with a core of a corpse, and solve the murder of an emcee who stumbled on a gopher land scam involving local politicos, cult leaders, and just plain folks. All while his fractious family fuels his frustration. Jobe’s called to look into the origin of the human remains found at the bottom of a gas station pit that have been unearthed by a direct push drilling rig. Shortly thereafter he’s hired to dig to the bottom of the mysterious killing of a local charity emcee and auctioneer. Are the two cases related? And do they have something to do with pocket gophers? Jobe’s three children help him sort out the case—until his daughter Miranda disappears, that is. When Jobe thinks he’s traced her to a battered women’s shelter he gets tased by an over-zealous police officer. Wife and daughter now both missing, Jobe’s coroner lab tech lover, sick of taking a back seat to his issues, dumps him in an emotional hole. It’s not long before Jobe finds a new romantic interest, Anne—or is he just playing her along, since she’s a suspect in her emcee husband’s death? An Evergreen College Adjunct Professor offers a clue, and Jobe and Anne head to Hoquiam on Washington’s coast to track down a humdinger of hanky-panky. Jilted lovers, County Commissioners, New Age cult followers, real estate developers, tourist agencies, academic archeologists, and Pacific Northwest eco-systems and politics. All with a liberal dusting of conservative frustration and bi-partisan humor. Book 3 in the Jobe Carson series. All the loose ends of Books 1 and 2 tied up too.
