About this ebook

A Man with Three Great German Shepherds (and 1000 troy ounces of gold) is a comic novel about a retired, Navy Warrant Officer, Dan Martin, and three endearing German Shepherds he's rescued and trained in Sacramento, California.

After saving the life of his Catholic priest from a knife wielding lunatic, Dan's dogs become local celebrities, attracting national attention when they appear with Jay Leno on The Tonight Show.

It's fame and fortune for Dan (he hopes) until the IRS makes him a target of investigation since he's a gold bug with his life savings in bullion, and for having worked in his retirement under the table (more gold) for a millionaire contractor who's been cheating on his taxes for decades.

Dan heads for northern Idaho in the hope that his employer can use leverage, money, and contacts to get the government off their backs, bringing the story to a stirring climax.
