The Mountain Mystery

Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Fifty years ago, no one could explain mountains. Arguments about their origin were spirited, to say the least. Progressive scientists were ridiculed for their ideas. Most geologists thought the Earth was shrinking. Contracting like a hot ball of iron, shrinking and exposing ridges that became mountains. Others were quite sure the planet was expanding. Growth widened sea basins and raised mountains. There was yet another idea, the theory that the world's crust was broken into big plates that jostled around, drifting until they collided and jarred mountains into existence. That idea was invariably dismissed as pseudo-science. Or "utter damned rot" as one prominent scientist said. But the doubtful theory of plate tectonics prevailed. Mountains, earthquakes, ancient ice ages, even veins of gold and fields of oil are now seen as the offspring of moving tectonic plates. Just half a century ago, most geologists sternly rejected the idea of drifting continents. But a few intrepid champions of plate tectonics dared to differ. The Mountain Mystery tells their story.

Book Description
A dead man in the woods. A corrupt game warden. A silver-tongued preacher. And a whole lot of drugs. When Sheriff Elven Hallie investigates a murder, the evidence seems self-explanatory. But when he digs in, things get more complicated. Following a lead, he visits a revival in the woods led by smooth-talking preacher Spencer Caldwell. The hunters in the area are already angry, having filed numerous complaints about the operation. But it isn't until Elven goes to see the man himself that he knows something is off. If that wasn't enough, game warden Jesse Parsons arrives in Dupray to assist in the murder investigation. But Elven quickly questions Jesse's motives when he's found being friendly with Hollis, the head of the Starcher criminal family. When a witness is discovered, it leads to more questions. And a lot more bodies. But when his deputy is put in danger, Elven knows he's running out of time and must take a more direct approach to solve the crime. Can he solve the murders before someone he loves is killed, or will his drastic measures cost him more than just his job? If you're a fan of C.J. Box's Joe Pickett, Craig Johnson's Longmire, Jeff Carson's David Wolf and Patrick Logan's Damien Drake, then you will be sucked into this page-turning mystery by Drew Strickland!
