Set in the year 1971, Fool’s Gold, the next Route 66 Mystery in the series, takes place in a small town along Route 66. Sara and her husband, Sam have carved out a good life in the high desert of the American West. After raising two boys, Sara finally has time to pursue her passion for painting. Her dog has other ideas.
Sara’s yellow Labrador Retriever, Rocko, remains his ebullient self. Between naps, he spends his time shadowing Sara, his favorite human. True to form, his nose for trouble keeps life interesting.
When Rocko discovers a girl lying face down in the dirt, Sara’s world takes a hard turn into a mess of trouble. She can’t tell if the girl is dead or alive.
This Clean K9 Mystery Series is free from profanity, sex, and gore. No dogs die.
Rated ‘PG-13’Fool’s Gold is inspired by the hopeful spirit of a tough-minded generation. ‘Clean’ does NOT mean light weight. I think you’ll find Fool’s Gold an entertaining read, regardless of your preferred genre. This episode is likely to twist your wits while warming your heart.

Editorial Review by D. L. Keur:
‘In an unpredictable tale of murder, redemption, and triumph, Fool's Gold has Rocko, Sara's dog, chasing scent up a tailings pile, and that scent is Death. But nobody bothers to investigate ...until Sara forces the issue. From there, things get complicated in a hurry and in a very big way.
Hang on for dear life, readers. What starts off as a mystery swiftly turns into a terrifying but riveting journey off old Route 66, plunging you into the deep, putrid canyons of corruption and greed where nobody's life matters until, finally, somebody puts their own on the line to make the difference, and, yes, Rocko plays a huge part in saving the day.
A chilling but wonderful story with a truly heartwarming end. The kicker is, yes, it could happen even now.
Highly recommended!’
