But Not Fortuitous

A Clint Wolf Novel (Clint Wolf Mystery Series, Book 16)

By: BJ Bourg

Narrated by: Nick Sullivan

When Mechant Loup Detective Clint Wolf stops a vehicle for reckless driving, he doesn’t find a drunk driver or an irresponsible teenager inside. Instead, he discovers a distraught father in a desperate search for his missing sons. Upon learning the boys were overdue from a fishing trip in the swamps, Clint summons the assistance of trusted friend and skilled man-tracker Melvin Saltzman.

During their search, Clint and Melvin locate one of the boys huddling near a pirogue in a private lake, but the other brother is nowhere to be found. Melvin begins tracking the teenager through the woods and soon locates a bloody shovel under a windthrown tree. Further on, he locates what appears to be a freshly dug grave—and things begin to go south from there.

What they find when they unearth the grave sets Clint on a 1,800-mile journey to solve a murder case that wasn’t meant to be solved. Whether or not he succeeds—or survives—will depend on a number of things, not the least of which might be a fortuitous event.
