The Dream Stealer

By J A Sliger

This story takes place in the small bedroom community of West Richland which is a sort of Cinderella city next to the three major cities serving the Hanford Nuclear Area during the 1970's known as the Tri-Cities of Washington. The other three cities of Pasco, Kennewick and Richland have large police departments that more or less dwarf West Richland.
The main character of the series, Curt Woods, is fictional but he is based largely on the author's personal experience. The other individuals in the series are also based on the people he came in contact with.
the first book published in this series, "The Chief Is Missing" happens later in the character's career. If you read it, Thank You. But this story would take place at the beginning of his career. He's the new man on the department. He hasn't attended the state police academy yet but he does have a college degree in Law Enforcement that comes in handy.
One of the items we added to the story is music references from that time period. If you lived during this time, we hope it takes you back to fond memories. If you didn't, well we hope you don't find them distracting.
Most of the officers from this time period were either single or soon to be, so their diets consisted mostly of restaurant food and coffee. Lots and lots of coffee.
