Gavin Lewis mourned the death of his best friend, Bruce Parker. But when it turned out that Parker was actually a terrorist bomber, Gavin himself comes under suspicion. Did Parker plan and execute the act of terrorism alone or did he have help from Lewis? MacFarland is fairly certain that he can solve the case when he encounters a monkey wrench—Bruce Parker may have led a dual life and actually be the son of a wealthy East Coast investment broker.

To further complicate matters, the bodyguard for the East Coast billionaire is a good looking ex-Air Force officer named Ari Dupont who has taken a romantic interest in Detective Cynthia Pierson. Pierson wants MacFarland to work with Dupont, but the last thing in the world MacFarland wants is to make Dupont look any more successful than every female member of the Denver Police Department already think he is.

The Remorseful Rafter is book eighteen in the Hot Dog Detective series. Each book can be read independently, but if you want to read them in order, just follow the alphabet.
