Life is splashing along for Hooker, as he cruises the South end of San Jose in his custom built 1959 Marmon tow-truck with his trusty side-kick Box, snoring between the seats. The serious end of fall has settled into a myriad of jumpstarts and drivers re-learning how to park in the middle of rain washed freeways. Blood ally is working overtime on its name. A rash of "suicide by oncoming car" takes over as IBM starts another round of layoffs that runs a cold blade through the lower ribs of the indentured Santa Clara valley. Mudslides make recoveries of wrecks over cliffs-dicey; and the unusual cold has done unkind things to many people. But for Hooker and the local police-it is just another fall with colder rain. A car recovery over a muddy cliff turns up a dead body; or more exact-four skeletons, and bags of curious jewelry and gold statues. It would all be a "walk away" for Hooker, but one of the skeletons is sporting a watch and dog tags that make it personal; very personal. And then Hooker desperately wishes for the warmth of summer.

Autorenporträt
Amazon Best Seller, Baer Charlton, is a degreed Social-Anthropologist. His many interests have led him around the world in search of the different and unique.

As an internationally recognized photojournalist, he has tracked mountain gorillas, sailed across the Atlantic, driven numerous vehicles for combined million-plus miles, raced motorcycles and sports cars, and hiked mountain passes in sunshine and snow.

Baer writes from the philosophy that everyone has a story. But, inside of that story is another story that is better. It is those stories that drive his stories.

There is no more complex and wonderful story then ones that come from the human experience. Whether it is dragons and bears that are people; a Marine finding his way home as a civilian, two under-cover cops doing bad to do good in Los Angeles, or a tow truck driving detective and his familyMr. Charlton's stories are all driven by the characters you come to think of as friends.
