In this second novel in the adventures of  Deputy Sean O’Conner series set in 1945, he investigates a small plane crash on a rugged wilderness peak far west of Phoenix in Maricopa County, Arizona.  A desert hunter gets to the wreck first and removes a valuable case belonging to a Las Vegas casino. Its owners badly want it back and send men to find it. A chain of events follows, resulting in the hunter swearing deadly vengeance on everyone searching for him—and anyone he perceives as wronging him. He uses a lifetime of desert knowledge and his lethal hunting skills to ambush and eliminate his pursuers. Sean’s work turns into a full-blown murder investigation with multiple victims as he follows a trail of death left by the hunter. It becomes a game of cat and mouse until they finally meet on a rocky hillside in the desert wilderness.

The Ambush Artist leads you on a shocking and unforgettable adventure into a little-known part of Arizona’s Sonoran desert wilderness as the hunter becomes the hunted.

Sean O’Conner returns home as a decorated hero after being wounded and surviving intense action as a commando behind German lines on D-Day, 1944. He suffers the heartbreaking loss of his parents while in a British hospital and decides to follow in his father’s footsteps by joining the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department in Arizona.

The seemingly routine disappearance leads Sean down a twisting and dangerous path to a man known as the Weighmaster and a mysterious place called the Orange Palace. His efforts reveal the Weighmaster's vicious kidnapping of missing teenage girls from the cotton fields to sell them into prostitution in a human trafficking operation that leads through the Orange Palace to organized crime in Detroit.

Honkytonk brawls, brushes with famous and infamous people, and taking on a new career as a songwriter all play out in this memoir of a musician’s years through teenage rock and roller, a “hired gun” honkytonk country guitar player, an upscale jazz and blues player, and as a songwriter in Music City USA. Bart shares his personal and often humorous short stories of teaching himself to play guitar, being upstaged by the Beatles, snubbing one of the most prominent guitar stars in rock and roll history, and the bumps and bruises of learning the song writing business.

 

A young boy’s discovery of the guitar as a ticket out of the monotony of farm life begins this trip through many years of experiences in Arizona, California, Hawaii, and Tennessee. The guitar became his first love and it has been a constant in his journey. It is a personal and revealing look at how being the “guy with the guitar” profoundly influenced his life. His emotional attachment to many of his instruments, the musician’s constant craving for something newer and better, and the heartache of loss of his most valued possession all color these stories of life as a musician.

Guitar Journey will give you a rich perspective on a musicians life.
