Coast Growers (Paperback)

The lush West Coast landscape hides some bitter old feuds ... After more than 30 years as the muckraking publisher of the Coast Chronicle, Albert Sloan made plenty of enemies. But when his body is found hanging in an apple grove off Settler's Road, the Mounties waste no time ruling his death a suicide. After all, he even left a suicide note. At the urging of Sloan's widow, reporter Pat Ross is drawn into an investigation of Sloan's last days. The search leads Pat from Witka City's most powerful operators to the beautiful Miss Kewpie Star Wars and her dangerous associate, Big Bill; from the source of an inexplicably significant bonsai tree to the ghostly shoreline manse of dead poet Virgil Wood. As the truth emerges, and even after a second high-profile death-by-apparent-suicide occurs, Pat is left to wonder: Had Albert Sloan stumbled onto the story of a lifetime, or was he simply a vindictive defeated politician whose sordid past and giant ego finally caught up with him?
