While working his winery's acreage, Zack is shocked to discover a complete skeleton buried in the ground, undisturbed for decades. Suddenly, the police are taking an interest, too, and Zack could be in trouble. The bones of Charles Hanson, father of notorious femme fatale, Clara Hanson, are thought to be linked to a man named Red Dawg, a miner believed to be responsible for the start of the Oregon State Gold Rush in 1850.

Did Charles Hanson discover the hidden location of Red Dawg's gold mine? Could Charlie have been silenced to keep the location a secret? And how can Zack be involved in a Pomme Valley murder that happened 50 years before he showed up? Sherlock and Watson are on the case as they try, yet again, to keep their buddy Zack out of jail.

Case of the Abandoned Bones

Case of the Abandoned Bones is an entertaining cozy mystery with engaging characters and an entertaining plot. Bob Johnson does a really good job bringing the characters to life and making the story enjoyable. I always look forward to his narration.

I received this book for free in exchange for an unbiased review.

Greed and Gold

When the body of a man who disappeared 50 years ago is discovered on his land, Zack and the corgis undertake an investigation that will lead them to murder, mystery and a new friend.
I loved this new Corgi Case Files story. It features the usual crew, a couple of Zack's old annoyances another great story which offers up some laughs, a few heart tugs and more twists and turns than a mountain switchback.
If you're a fan of the series, this one's a must read.
if you're just discovering the Corgis, what are you waiting for?

best one so far

Bob Johnson the narrator is getting better with all the voices keeping them straight and the author is weaving a surprising page turner..... and a character got just what they wanted.....

Another fun excursion!

The publisher's blurb is a good hook and only misses telling about the nasty person who feels entitled to the winery and performs one too many dirty tricks. All of the characters certainly are, and the sleuthing is well done. Loved it! Easily a stand alone, but why?
Bob Johnson aces the narration with just the right touch that highlights the humor by downplaying the guffaws. I don't know how he keeps from cracking up!

Zac and the dogs at it again

Zack has purchased land from his neighbor for his winery and in the process of clearing it, he finds a skeleton. This should be of no big surprise for fans of this series. Sherlock and Watson have to solve another mystery. I do love these books. The narrator of this series is Bob Johnson and he is wonderful, I can't imagine the story without him. The perfect voice for these stories. If you enjoy good clean fun, a bit of mystery, and adorable dogs then this is the series for you.
