The Terrorist Plot at Gopherville

About the author: Following a previous life, he has turned his attention to telling stories about the Old West during the 19th and early 20th centuries. He has discovered there are thousands of untold stories to be found in old newspapers, magazines, and sometimes even history books. The stories he writes are mostly made-up fiction, but then so are a lot of history books. He has learned that what people most value are not the bare bone facts of the past, but the stories we tell about them. Steve (whose friends mostly refer to him as "Bart") derives his idea from listening to people, walking around old neighborhoods, and a lot of reading. As for his previous life, he had an undistinguished career in civil service. His first actual job was in the U.S. Army. Someday he may write a book titled "All I Need to Know I learned in the Army." He now lives in a rural part of northern California, where he likes to listen to folks and look at trees.

They say Bradshaw's crazy just because he talks to his cat and eats roadkill. They say that's why he was kicked out of MIT. He knows better, but he's not saying. Now he's come across a Government secret, a super weapon. Who can he trust to share it with? There are all these agents running around looking for it. To make matters worse a beautiful woman turns up seeking revenge. Now even the Sheriff is worried and there are rumors the President himself might be coming to calm the hysteria. This whole thing could be embarrassing. Take a look inside these pages and see what a tangled web we weave!
