The Circle K Saga

About the Book

Jim Garrett is a Deputy Sheriff of Cochise County Colorado. He discovered a stray horse in a pasture on his father's ranch. From the brand he determined the horse had strayed from the Circle K ranch, which was legendary in this part of Colorado. His quest to contact the owner led him into an adventure he had not dreamed of when he first telephoned the ranch. Early in his search he found the ranch house abandoned and the elderly owner missing. In the library he discovered a book, "The Krills Of Colorado", there he followed the thread of one family through the history of the country from the immigrant founder of the ranch in 1844 to his descendants ending in 1995. Reading the book gave him a clue to the missing man, who had become a victim of his use of modern technology, which left a vast empire unattended except for the automatic controls he had put into practice. Jim was mystified about an apparition mentioned in the book. His knowledge of the family history led to an assignment that took an unexpected turn in New York City on that fateful day September 11, 2001.
