De: Bob Kaster

Narrado por: Nathan Agin

Dinner turns into a nightmare when Hailey Madison narrowly escapes sexual assault at the hands of Rex Randall Ryder The Third and his sister, Melinda. Ultra-wealthy and powerful Ryder had invited Hailey, a nurse in her late twenties, to dinner at his lavish mansion in rural, isolated Scott Valley. The next day, frightened and distraught, she tells her harrowing story to Bob, a septuagenarian retired judge, who vows to investigate.

When Hailey goes missing after her blood-spattered and vandalized car is found abandoned miles away in a small town, her boyfriend Ben Thompson is arrested for murder. Bob enlists the help of his friend Brenda LeHane, “the Beautiful Black Lady,” and Bebe, his wise and faithful Labrador Retriever, to find Hailey and clear Ben of murder. Convinced the Mansion holds the secret, their quest uncovers kidnapping, corruption and drug cartels. Will they solve the mystery before it’s too late?

Septuagenarian Bob Kaster, a retired California Superior Court Judge, lives in a rural mountain community in Northern California. After retiring from the bench, he began writing short stories and columns for his local newspaper. The Mansion is the second book in his “Septuagenarian” thriller series.

Money Talks

This is the 2nd book I've read from thus author and I have loved them both. The characters seem like real people put into situations for which they had little control. I like how Bob could always trust his dog, but some not so much. A good story.
