The Split Mountain Cafe

Bud Shumway Mystery Series, Book 19

By: Chinle Miller

Narrated by: Richard Henzel

When Utah Sheriff Bud Shumway and his friend Mayor Howie decide to get out of town and go camping, they have no idea what kind of mayhem and intrigue they’re getting themselves into, from the death of the camp-host’s wife to finding rare jewels in the desert. Having their friends Shorty and Doc along just adds to the chaos, especially since they have a strange prescience that Doc is about to die.

Throw in a geocacheing dog, stolen cactii and dinosaur tracks, a murderous hawk, a ghost mountain lion, weird hoodoos, a moveable feast, dangerous river rapids, blizzards, talk of plot twists, and an unusual type of cafe, and who could ask for more intrigue and adventure in the untrammeled wilds of northern Utah’s Dinosaur National Monument?

This is book #19 in the Bud Shumway Mystery Series.

What’s Not to Love?

A very enjoyable mystery that never strays to the obscene or foul language like many writers do today. Quirky characters enjoying their quirkiness and the great outdoors while solving an interesting mystery.

Every book is a pleasure to read

I love these books, great characters with fun outdoor mysteries. Bud and his crew are on a fun white water adventure.
