Frustrated that their "revolution" never materialized, a cadre of geriatric radicals hatches a plot to blow up hydropower dams in the Pacific Northwest and replicate the great ice-age floods that carved the Columbia River Gorge. They get support through an unexpected alliance with old-line communists, the new incarnation of Russia's KGB, the government of Iran, and a would-be terrorist in Key West who has possession of a cold war era hydrogen bomb. Undetected by Homeland Security, the plot is uncovered by "Swede" Larsson, Town Marshall in Riggins, Idaho (population 406), while investigating the seemingly accidental drowning of a young man in the Salmon River. As the scope of the conspiracy becomes apparent, Swede is joined by his river guide friend Cassidy Pierce and former Vietnam combat pilot Terry Caldwell in a desperate race to prevent a cataclysmic flood.
Thirty-four gold miners lay dead on a gravel bar where Deadline Creek flowed into the Snake River in the depths of Hells Canyon. From the surrounding bluffs, a small gang of horse thieves had poured gunfire down on the defenseless miners, who had committed two cardinal sins: they were Chinese, and they had found gold. A hundred twenty-five years later, a woman's body is found in the Willamette River, wrapped in a piece of carpet and weighted down with a cast-iron anchor. Private investigator Corrigan, having just completed his investigation of the notorious Mendelson-Devonshire murders, once again finds himself trying to solve the murder of a victim whose body was pulled from the river many years after her death. In the course of his year-long investigation into the death of Tara Foster, Corrigan learns that there is no limit to the mayhem that is triggered by lust for the Deadly Gold.

Deadly Gold follows the ongoing adventures of investigator Corrigan and his associates in the tiny riverfront community of Canemah, Oregon.
