Long Way from Paradise

Summary

Doboro the Bottlenecker is back for another action-packed adventure! After months on the road, trying to avoid sword-slinging assassins and barely avoiding prison for defeating one of them, a wandering blues singer, Doboro reunites unexpectedly with a dear friend, Summer Winter. After he rescues her from a couple of street thugs, Summer, now a single mother, invites Doboro to stay with her family for a time in Paradise, Kansas, and he gratefully accepts. Playing his cigar box guitar on the street, he is quickly hired to provide live music at the Paradise Hotel by young, billionaire tycoon Stu Armstrong. And all seems well and good. However, while old dangers have paused in their pursuit of Doboro, there’s trouble in Paradise, as Armstrong’s desire to turn this idyllic town into the next Las Vegas has him employing strong-arm tactics to convince even longtime residents to surrender their homes and businesses to him. And when he sets his sights on Summer and her home, Doboro takes it very personally. Very personally indeed.  But in order to intervene, he’s going to have to go through his lovely chief of security, Mae Linn...whom Doboro has grown to like. A lot. An explosive confrontation is inevitable, and Paradise may get caught in the resulting shock-wave. Can Doboro stop Paradise from becoming a veritable hell on earth?  This installment of the Doboro the Bottlenecker series brings action, humor, and a maybe little romance in ways only Kevin M. Kraft can.
