About this ebook
What could be wrong with making a few bucks?
Plenty, three friends soon learn, trapped in the company town of Boot Hill. If they can somehow get a trainload of boots over the mountains to the Big City, they could be rich - richer than they ever dreamed.
But in an alternate 1973, Global Warming has brought the world to a standstill and the use of all carbon fuels is tightly restricted. The few means of transportation left are dominated by a corporate behemoth known as the Concession. Store shelves sit empty as shortages run rampant.
But Beanie, Fluky and Mitty have a plan: just one freight car full of boots, across the mountains, and they could be rich...
Richer than they ever dreamed.
And after all, what could be wrong with making a few bucks?
Plenty.

Seattle is my home and the backdrop of many of my books. I am not a detective, or a zombie, or living in an alternate version of the 21st Century, so my life and my books pretty much just overlap with the Seattle thing. If you like detectives, zombies, alternate histories, even Seattle, you might like my books. I do. I like you. There, I said it. I’ve written over a dozen books, including the aforementioned ones about detectives and zombies and alternate histories. Did I mention Seattle? Seattle's in some of them, too.
