Humpy Cove

“If you fall in, toss me the lunch before you hit the water.” So says Alex Price as the Alphonse and Gaston routine (‘After you, my dear Alphonse—No! No! You first, Gaston!’) is played by Alex and his former college roommate, Renaldo, in Don G. Porter’s latest Alaskan action adventure, Humpy Cove.

The repartee between the two is fun, fast, and furious throughout the book as is the action. The tale begins with the two hammering through the short seas of Resurrection Bay in Renaldo’s boat on a dark and stormy day. Renaldo is headed for the site of his future hotel, Humpy Cove, but, they run headlong into a magnificent yacht, breached and drifting toward rocks that will sink her.
They board the Wunderbar. She appears abandoned (and therefore salvageable by the finders under marine law!)… until they find the couple handcuffed to the bed frame who are not quite dead yet.
“Damn,” Renaldo said, “there goes our yacht.”

The tale’s underway as Alex and Renaldo fight and figure their way through following seas and following killers to solve the mystery of Humpy Cove.

Like his character Alex Price, author Don Porter has held both
commercial pilot and private investigator’s licenses and has flown for years
in rural Alaska. The author’s deep knowledge of the territory, the people,
and the life of a bush pilot shines through in the many vivid details that
color this tale of cold-blooded murder in the cold North. This is the fourth
Alex Price novel Porter has published; for more about the author and the
