Deciding to change careers is never an easy decision. Throw in a missing person, a dead body, and winding up in the crosshairs of a killer and it’s a recipe for high anxiety. But then, new jobs always seem to have a few snags, at first.
For Cal Jamison, the decision to become a private investigator seemed only natural after solving the murder of his friend, Luther Greeves, and it would give him time to help his grandfather on the ranch, or so he thought. That is until one of his former military teammates disappeared. As the trail grows colder, a body and a cryptic clue surface, placing the next target squarely on Jamison’s back. Can he solve the mystery before he becomes the next victim?

REVIEW - Koenig Triple Crown Series
For those who like getting lost in a good book, this story comes as a Trilogy in three books starting with Koenig's Wonder by Linda Kuhlmann.
Hooked from the start reading the prologue, the year 1937 tells of intrigue and suspense when a new power growing in Germany threatens their lives, forcing them to flee Germany and their escape to America.
From this point the story captivates the reader with arriving in New York City with only a White Lipizzan Stallion and a stolen Friedrich painting.
What happens next effects three generations of the Masemann family as they become torn apart by war and revenge --------- it’s like a good series that readers don't want to see the end ------- A must read.

KOENIG'S WONDER
First Book in the Koenig Triple Crown Series
The year is 1937 when two brothers are forced
to leave their home in Germany. They arrive in New York City
with only a white Lipizzan stallion and a stolen Friedrich
painting. What happens next affects three generations of the
Maseman family as they become torn apart by greed, war, and
revenge.
Years later, Emma Maseman discovers the harsh
truth about her family when she is investigated for the theft
of Koenig's Wonder, a Kentucky Derby
winning thoroughbred. As the mysteries unravel, Koenig's
Wonder races toward the finish line in brilliant
and thoroughly engrossing fashion.
Koenig's Wonder is
a fictional portrayal of Linda Kuhlmann's family history that
began when her great-grandfather and his brother came to America
and were separated, never to meet again. Ms. Kuhlmann lives
in Oregon with her husband. This is her first novel.
In the midst of a manhunt for a serial killer in Dublin, Shannon O’Toole, a young sculptor, is forced to confront her past.
Surrounded by the seamy side of gallery life, she is drawn to her estranged father in Oregon and finds that crime and violence have followed her. Unknowingly, she has attracted the Dublin serial killer and is at risk for herself and those around her.
Note from Linda:
The spark for my novel, The Red Boots, came as I was driving from Oregon to Illinois to help my parents move from the house they built and lived in for over forty years.
As I drove, I was listening to Celine Dion's CD "A New Day Has Come." Most of the songs on that CD inspired scenes in the novel. In fact, it could be a soundtrack to the movie, if the novel is ever adapted to film.
"I'm Alive" inspired the story to begin in Ireland.
“A New Day Has Come” is a song that showed the freedom my character, Shannon, felt as she was driving to her father's, who she hadn't seen in over twenty years.
“Have You Ever Been In Love” reminded me of a moonlit motorcycle ride with my first love.
“At Last” is the song my main characters, Jake and Shannon, dance to in a small tavern in Joseph, Oregon.
