Hooligan Arm Brent Purvis

When a dip-net fisherman hauls in a severed human foot, Lieutenant Jim Wekle is thrown into another whodunit on his remote island. Alaskan mayhem ensues with a rogue gang of elderly women on ATVs, a Planet Patrol environmental boat with an oil leak, and an influx of tourists, each clutching a fresh copy of a book titled, Muskeg Mama. Kram is in rare form as he decides to enter the local work force by applying his unique perspective to a series of part-time jobs. Commercial fishermen are enraged, cough syrup is being purchased in bulk, fish are being lit on fire for profit, and a local writer is in crisis. The result is bedlam on the shores of Hooligan Arm.
