A Mystery Novel Set in Morro Bay, California

        by K.M. Kavanagh

Book Description

When a body is found at a Morro Bay construction site, authorities rule the death as accidental. Family members are not convinced. The victim's grandson was found locked inside the deceased's Plymouth Woodie hiding under a blanket, traumatized and unable to speak. A few weeks later, the nine-year-old boy still remains silent.

The boy's father, Harry Hines, asks P.I. Rock Martinez to look into his father's death. Though reluctant to uncover something that could hurt his friend, Rock accepts the job. It's a decision he soon regrets. When past deceptions converge with present corruption, trouble hits back hard. As Rock continues to unravel the truth, the game turns deadly. It's a race against time and players who will do anything to win.

"Rock of Morro Bay has a superb balance of scary and funny lacing this marvelous debut about a grandfather's witnessed by a young grandson. P.I. Rock Martinez, the owner of two smart-talking Amazon parrots, investigates the case, which unfolds against the Central Coast of California. Great story, funny, excellent writing."
