Rampage in Missoula Jake Orlo

Lieutenant Thomas Catlin of the Missoula police force is scheduled to take a vacation, and he's earned it.



However, his prospects of enjoying this vacation look doubtful. He's got two problems overshadowing his anticipation of enjoying drinks by the ocean. His girlfriend, Suzanne, isn't talking to him, and he doesn't know why. Now it looks like she won't be coming with him to enjoy a week at the beach. He's still in pursuit of wanted criminal Stevens, suspected of laundering drug money and killing three police officers. Working with his partner, Sergeant Delores Delaney, Catlin has every intention of bringing Stevens into custody before he gets on the plane for a week off.



No one's surprised when Catlin and Delaney do catch their man, even if they had help from an anonymous source. The problem is that the love of Lieutenant Thomas Catlin's life still won't talk to him. Looks like he's leaving for sunny beaches on his own.



As Catlin sits alone, meditating over his relationship with Suzanne, he has no inkling of the events that will bring him roaring back to Missoula to shake up the town.
