Two hip-hop-loving best friends work a salmon season in Alaska and, with the help of a humorous, sexy social-media vlogger and a 106-year-old pot-smoking resort matron, uncover a back-room side deal and unscrupulous dealings of a sinister lobbyist to thwart the poisonous acid runoff of an evil mine to save the largest wild salmon run in the world.

Copper Cobra is Book 4 of the Pedro the Water Dog Saves the Planet series, a read-in-an-afternoon novella-length environmental, cli fi adventure, filled with lovable, quirky characters in a candy wrapper of laughter, irreverence, kisses, friendship, satire, fishing, love, and magnificent scenic beauty.

"In these wonderful stories, Kalfsbeek addresses important environmental issues through the loving, gentle hands of a cast of characters that are easy to connect with. One wants to be part of this healthy gang; it is easy to fall in love with one or two of them. She has found an avenue to address these critical issues that must be talked about but without a heavy hammer. A delightful read that will fill you with hope and a forgotten bounce in your step or pedal."

—Chris White, author of Wind, Waves and a Suicidal Boat
