BOOM TOWN
by Trevor Scott

A small Oregon resort town is exploding in population, and now a posh golf estate has blown up, killing a young couple. Was it a murder suicide as the local sheriff thinks? Or has this idyllic community been ripped apart by scandalous sexual deviance, lust, jealousy and the almighty dollar? Find out in this first mystery in the Tony Caruso series and the first release by Broadhead Books.

"Fast action and good characterizations make this launch title of a new imprint a good summer read."—Library Journal

"Trevor Scott manages another winner with this exciting tale set in the middle of the Cascade mountain range on the Northwest. His take on the real estate boom of California millionaires invading this idyllic space is on the money. Real estate and computer companies seem to be the big money makers on the West Coast, and the opportunity for fraud, bullying, and theft seems to be the order of the day. Scott's background and knowledge of all things relating to bombs puts him in the driver's seat, and the reader is the fortunate recipient of an excellent plot, well-crafted characters, and constant action. BOOM TOWN is Trevor Scott's second foray in the P.I. series, after the excellent Jake Adams International Thriller Series. He never fails to please."—Midwest Book Review
