The Chee-Chalker

Written by L. Ron Hubbard

Narrated by Tamra Meskimen and Tait Ruppert

Chee-Chalker: a newcomer or tenderfoot. Bill Norton might be new to Ketchikan but he's no tenderfoot. In fact, he's an FBI agent — looking for his boss, who vanished investigating a heroin smuggling ring. What Norton finds is murder... and a heart-stopping heiress. But is she, too, mixed up in the heroin trade? It will take all of Norton's CSI-like skills to squeeze out the truth.

L. Ron Hubbard

With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 350 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.

Reviews for The Chee-Chalker

[bruce_deming_1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

A fine film noir detective story set in Ketchikan, Alaska, and the audio book version definitely helps you recreate the scenes, settings and moods in your own. I could distinctly image the feel of moisture sodden air, the possible smell of wet wharf planking, the rocking of boats docked in harbor.I did not try to imagine any smell for the floating corpse though. Too gross a thought and I have no such experience to recall thank goodness though I definitely could imagine it floating and its hair moving in the water currents.A fine atmosphere for a murder mystery in a remote, lonely location.
