About the Book

Harold Oliver is a has-been private detective who finds himself injured and dumped alongside Highway 89 in southeast Idaho. His past consisted of big haired blonde babes, fast cars, and his number was on the speed dial of princes and kings, presidents and mobsters. Those were the days when he laughed in the face of evil and good, when the future was infinite and the past never caught up. Now, he thinks his best days are behind him, but are they? The locals of Franklin, Idaho who are glad to have their own PI, welcome Harold, into their tiny, apparently crime free, hamlet. But, this quirky little town may not be as trouble free as it appears. Join Harold as he tries to make sense of a town that makes no sense at all.
About the Author: Harry Ames lives with his wife and junior high school sweetheart in Providence, Utah. They have five children, and 14 grandchildren. The author retired a few years ago from a 45 year career in aerospace including ten years at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and ending as Deputy Director of the Utah State University Space Dynamics Laboratory. Author's note: "I've always wanted to write humor because the space business is a place where there is little humor and the workplace pressures are tremendous. I conceived Harold Oliver during many boring meetings with government bureaucrats as a means of staying awake. I'm a people observer and can't stop analyzing why they are the way they are. Harold Oliver gave me the opportunity to create a little record of the results of my analysis of people and their lives and politics. We live in a time of dark literature and Harold is my own Don Quixote tilting at windmills and trying to bring some light and laughter into a tiny corner of the literary space.
