About the Book

Bear's afternoon of beer and baseball is interrupted by a phone call from a former high school friend who is standing in a pool of his dead brother's blood. So begins the tale of a cold-blooded murder and the theft of a two million dollar dime! Faced with bi-coastal murder suspects, Pinky hands Bear and Flo the sweaty task of tracking down one of the suspects along the hot, humid North Carolina shoreline while he chooses to pursue the other on the Kona Coast of Hawaii. But Pinky, after imbibing too many Mai Tai's with a bevy of sky-goddesses, and facing a mandatory court appearance, is forced to return to Carson City, sans suspect. Bear and Flo hit pay dirt, and with the identity of the killer in-hand, they fly across the Pacific Ocean to the smoggy Beijing airport where they meet Joe, the uncle of Pinky's Chinese secretary. The enigmatic Joe quotes Confucius and Shakespeare as he purposefully guides the dynamic duo to their final destination-oxygen sparse Lhasa, Tibet.
About the Author: Ken was born in 1938 at Hollywood Hospital. He grew up in Los Angeles with his parents, his older sister and younger brother. In a turn of bad luck, the dreaded Polio virus attacked Ken at the age of five. By the age of sixteen, after eleven years of operations, therapy, and braces to mitigate the effects of Polio, Ken's luck changed when he met the girl of his dreams. A few years later they married, produced three wonderful children, and settled into a happy life in Southern California. In 1966, Ken and his family moved to the green hills of Sonoma County where they bought a home surrounded with apple trees. Some time later, Ken, designed, built, and operated a small winery that produced award winning Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Then, in a moment of madness, Ken began writing. His first article was published in Golf Illustrated. Many more golf articles followed in national and regional magazines including Golf Magazine and Fairways and Greens. Eventually Ken felt the urge to write his first novel. Now, after the publication of The Bloody Birthright, The Big Show Stopper, Death is a Cabernet, and The Tartan Shroud, Ken has published his latest Pinky and Bear mystery, Brother, can you spare a dime?
