Sometimes you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Cowboy drifter Rick Cooper is on the run when he meets Gladys Ryan, an eccentric widow who offers him a ride in her classic 1970 Mustang. Before long she convinces him to accompany her and her ancient golden retriever to Northern Ontario to help run her husband's hunting lodge. With the promise of a share of the season's profits, Rick is happy to go along. But when Gladys fails to keep her promises at season's end, everything goes sideways.
This short book is part of Orca's Rapid Reads series: established authors write novellas at an easy-reading level.
Rick and Gladys are both kind of slimy and use each other. It comes to a bad end. We're pretty sure what will happen, even though the last sentence is ambiguous.
