The Mountain Man's Dog
(2016)(The first book in the Mountain Man Mystery series)
A novel by Gary Corbin
Lehigh Carter fears only two things: dogs and women.
His fears are about to become very real.
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 rescued an injured stray dog on the highway.
Lehigh Carter didn't really mean to adopt the dog. But his ex-fiancee, 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 entangles Lehigh in a life-or-death conflict with the senator's hard-nosed campaign treasurer, Paul van Paten, who has his own plans for Stacy's future.
The Mountain Man's Dog is a briskly narrated 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.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
