Sawdust Joint

Jamaica to Put-in-Bay to Wooster to Tulare to Las Vegas to London to Morocco to the French Riviera to Norway to New Orleans

What's killing dairy cows? Investigative reporter Emerson Moore's search for the source takes a deadly turn when he focuses on infiltrating a British biotechnology company suspected to be involved with the deaths of the dairy cows and several humans.

Following the unexpected death of a close colleague, Moore faces his most formidable challenge yet as he embarks on a James Bond-like international odyssey with the help of a technological genius and a Royal Canadian Mountie as his unlikely wingman to confront a vengeful nemesis bent on bioterrorism.

Sawdust Joint promises to be the most exciting Emerson Moore adventure yet as he finds his physical endurance and mental capabilities pushed beyond their normal limits.

Filled with casino action, a bevy of beautiful femme fatales, dangerous mountain road chases, treacherous cliff face climbing, incarceration in a Moroccan prison and high technology, Moore matches wits with a diabolical villain who is one of the most dangerous men he has encountered.
