Cold in the Ground Kindle Edition

by Charles C. Brown (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
5.0 out of 5 stars 7 ratings
In the eyes of a doting Grandmother, a grandson can do no wrong.

Christopher Reynolds has been missing for two years, and nobody is looking for him. Then the boy's grandmother asks Dermot "Mack" MacFarland to look into his disappearance. It's a daunting task with no leads until Mack learns of the rumor that Chris had used a date-rape drug on a young girl shortly before he went missing. Could the rumor be true? Was there any proof?

Then Mack gets a break and finds videos--eight of them, to be exact, and a passbook account with nearly a hundred thousand dollars in it.

Who are the men, and who are these girls in these videos? Where had the money come from? Blackmail? If Mack could find the answers to these questions--with help from his wife Jolie, who has lived in the area longer than he has--would it lead him to Christopher Reynolds? Would the boy be alive? Or would Mack have to tell a grieving grandmother that her only grandson was cold in the ground?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Charles Brown decided to major in English and minor in history in college because he planned to be a writer and thought both would help him. He figured the teaching profession would allow him time to write, but he soon learned that teaching didn't leave much time for writing--not when he soon had a wife and three children to support. So the writing was put on the back burner until he retired.

Now the nest is empty and there's time to write. His wife, Carolyn Brown, is a romance author so she understands what it means to have deadlines and characters running around in an author's head.

Brown graduated from high school in Mt. Union, Pennsylvania, from college at Southeastern State University in Durant, Oklahoma and taught high school English in three states, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, before he retired in 2008. He served three years in the Army, spending most of that time in Germany. He and his wife, Carolyn, have three children and enough grandchildren to keep them young.

He has four mystery books available and another one planned for later this winter.

    Mrs. Alma Reynolds is thankful he didn't. She might not like what he found but he did find her a peace of mind.
    I did not see how this story would end, and almost didn't finish because of the graphics and language-it was the basis & character of Chris Reynolds yet was still disturbing. It was a well thought out crime, two years in the making.

    I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. Very interesting story line. Brought to the fore front of some of the issues that are in the real world, but done in a way to keep the reader interested and looking forward to the next chapter. Looking forward to reading more books from Charles C. Brown, and hoping for a following up on Mack and Jolie. Keep up the good work Charles.

    Mr. Brown's third book is every bit as entertaining as the first two. His characters have substance and personality. I'm looking forward to the next one already!
