"Greg Corle" is the pen name of John Doe. John Doe lives in a tree on the outskirts of Dead Polecat Gulch, Colorado, where, to the astonishment of all, he continues to elude local mental health and law enforcement authorities. Mr. Doe was born in California but, abetted by his parents, escaped to a southwestern state as an infant. He loitered about institutions of higher learning for nine years and was bribed to leave by the offer of a couple of university degrees, neither of which he honestly deserved. He also served in one of our military branches and was honorably discharged despite the best efforts of his NCOs to hang him out to dry. He is married and has one wife, two adult sons, one daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren, none of whom are willing to take the blame for him. If you encounter him on the street you are asked to report his location to the Dead Polecat Gulch constabulary . . . but Mr. Doe asks you not to do so, given that he's no longer fast enough to outrun even the slowest of police persons.
Micah Forrester is a former Army Ranger and businessman who has retreated to his Colorado mountain property, Forrester Branch, following a bitter divorce. But Willem Vossler, the owner of the neighboring ski area, covets Forrester Branch for his expansion and development plans - and will use any means, legitimate or otherwise, to get his hands on the place. After discovering that no lawful measures will save Forrester Branch, Micah assembles a small team of operatives and sabotages the ski area. Vossler's plans are defeated, but the operation's success leads to a cascade of disasters. And as law enforcement closes in on him, Micah is forced to flee into the Colorado mountains in the middle of winter. Take a look at Forrester Branch if you're interested in a modern-day western set in the high country of Colorado.
"Corle generously fills his tale with action and drama; readers looking for fast-paced excitement will find it here . . . A philosophically simplistic but entertaining ecological drama." Kirkus Reviews
