7. THE OLD GRAY WOLF(2012) by James D. Doss

James Doss died in May, 2012, and this is the last of his Charlie Moon series.

I am so sad. Doss' books are so special to me. Almost every sentence is a gem, and I relish the characters, plots and humor. He's the only American author I would rank with Cotterill, Adler-Olsen, or some of the many foreign authors I've come to enjoy.

I've bought almost all the books in the series, except for the last two, and will get them soon...

He wrote in the preface of his book about an old lady who had just gave up the ghost, "..Where a particular given-up ghost goes and what it does when it gets there remains an open question...." I hope Mr. Doss' ghost has found a cozy and interesting spot somewhere up there or over there, an open question...

Start reading his series anywhere in the series - just start...

Book 117 of 2012
