Jobe's Anguish: A Jobe Carson Mystery (Book 4)

Private Detective Jobe Carson faces another roadblock in the cycle of life: Handling the challenge of eldercare as his demented dad is dumped on him just as he's hired to find out who is slaying local cyclists. Will he be able to derail the Cycle Psycho and keep his own sanity while managing his frustrating father? Jobe is minding his own business when his tired brother dumps off their dad, whose senile dementia has become too much for the brother to deal with. A former single dad who managed to be a private detective at the same time, Jobe thinks taking care of a demented dad is practicable. It isn’t. Jobe finds out how impracticable when he gets hired by an insurance company to investigate the Cycle Psycho case. As the body count of slain cyclists grows and the company gets tired of forking over big bucks, Jobe needs to find out who is doing the killing and how he or she is doing it. Bad enough when innocent bicyclers get pounded off the side of the road, worse when investigators can’t even figure out the weapon being used to do it. And are roundabouts part of the process? College professors, firefighters, coroners, elder caregivers, FBI lab investigators, transgender hobos, and a Chamber of Commerce president. Dementia and the cycle of life. Cyclists and the demented person killing them. The riddle of who’s ridding the roads of riders, the mystery of the method of murdering, and the enigma of the evaporating mind. The deteriorating death of consciousness and just plain death. And how laughter and love prevail. Book 4 in the Jobe Carson Series.
