In the small town of Clarkesville, in the heart of the Oregon Cascade Mountains, a humble forester stumbles into the complex world of crooked cops and power-hungry politicians… all because he rescues a stray, injured dog on the highway. Lehigh Carter never really meant to adopt the dog. But his ex-fiancée, Stacy McBride, convinces him to do it, with a promise to help. Their rekindled romance angers her father, state Senator George McBride, who sees her backwoods suitor as a blemish on his carefully created political image. It also sets off a chain of events that entangle Lehigh in a life-or-death conflict with the senator's hardnosed campaign treasurer, Paul van Paten, who had his own plans for Stacy's future. The Mountain Man's Dog is a briskly told crime thriller loaded with equal parts suspense, romance, and light-hearted humor, pitting honor and loyalty against ruthless ambition and runaway greed in a town too small for anyone to get away with anything.
Autorenporträt
Gary Corbin is an author and playwright who lives and works in Camas, WA, a suburb of Portland, OR. He loves to ski, brew beer, roast coffee, and pretend to teach his dog new tricks. His eight novels and 20-some-odd plays have attracted both acclaim and scorn, according to rumor. As often as not, you'll find him ignoring those reviews on the Oregon Coast with his sweetheart.
