Out of the Muck is the fifth novel in the Life on the Alaska Frontier Series
On the frontier of Alaska, all Thomas Thornton wanted to do was mine for gold. Rather than producing a bounty of gold, a new and potentially lucrative opportunity thrusts him and his crew into a mystery. He and his friends, along with a novice deputy marshal, must work together to solve a series of murders before more people fall prey to a relentless killer.
Scene from Out of the Muck:
Before long, the drunks would stagger out of the saloon, intending to make their way home. Not any drunk would do—they had to have the right qualities to make them suitable. She preferred the newcomers—they usually carried lots of cash and were the easiest to trick—easiest to make disappear. Second best were miners with a nice, fat gold poke. Those were trickier—she was known around town, and if things didn’t go right, the game would be over. Oh, how she loved the game, particularly the ruse—the con—but more so, the reward.
The Life on the Alaska Frontier series:
"Did not want the story to end. Like a youngster on Christmas morning I was happy to find the story continued."
"I read all four books in this series. I thought they were well written and I enjoyed reading them. Great descriptions of the country and good character development."
"This story has a solid plot and flows smoothly from the previous novel. The scenes are easily believable, and the author is great at weaving facts and interesting details into the story. I found it hard to put this series down from start to finish. Excellent story telling."
"This is a great read, recommended to anyone who would love to read a clean wholesome book. I could read the series again and still enjoy."
"This book is a step back in time to the real days of Alaska. It is well written and one feels ad if they are a part of the story. I could see the country in my mind and feel the emotions in my heart."
"This is a well written book. I enjoyed reading it. So much so that I couldn't put it down once I started it. It would be nice to see another book or two in this series."
"The book gave me an appreciation of the struggles faced by the early Alaskan pioneers and miners. This book was a good addition to G.E. Sherman's first book."
"Just finished [the] book. GREAT STORY!!!! Can't wait for the next one!! It flowed so well and kept me engaged the whole time."
"I just finished [the] book---where is the next one? Easy to read and very engaging..."
"I read the book in one day because, once I started, I couldn't put it down..."
