Jobe's Dread

A Jobe Carson Mystery

Private Detective Jobe Carson is just trying to enjoy a vacation, exploring the sights of the country’s upper corner with his loving sidekick Anne. But there’s no rest for the weary as a clever killer has found a way to make some people’s vacations permanent. As in, a vacation from life itself. Can Jobe stop him before he kills again? A dark excursion into the world of addiction, from caffeine to methedrine, thrill-killing to just chilling. You may never have a motel cup of coffee again…
Jobe chases his past and present in a whirlwind tour of powerful forces, finding answers in homeless shelters, head shops, and hippie institutions of higher learning. Accent on the high.
Jobe winds his way through Yellowstone, Craters of the Moon, The Grand Tetons, The Snake and Payette Rivers, Kirkham Hot Springs, Hells Canyon, The Continental Divide, Sun Valley, McCall, Idaho, and Walla Walla, Washington, the city so cool they named it twice.
Coffee, Flowriders, Gondolas, Tyrolean Lodges, Silver-making, Geothermal plants, giant Windmills, and the crucial help of an Olympia philanthropy organization dedicated to helping veterans. All leavened with a touch of philosophy.
