Sage Adair #8
Bitter Cry
Progessive History With a Mystery Twist. Night fog drives a young newsboy into a seedy saloon where his appearance catapults Sage Adair into a world of painful memories, child exploitation and frantic searches for missing loved ones. The eight Sage Adair Mysteries are set in 1902, Portland, Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. These adventure stories highlight the positive changes made by that era’s progressives at a time when wealth and power were concentrated in the hands of a few. One reviewer wrote: “Authentic and well-researched, these historical mysteries show a colorful and corrupt city full of complex and shady characters. Sage Adair is a secret operative who works on behalf of the growing labor movement, pursuing his mission into hobo jungles, lumber camps, seedy saloons and the drawing rooms of the rich.

Loved this story.
Loved this story.
Drove my car to Oatfield Rd. Went South to Park Ave.. Turned right, crossed McLoughlin Blvd.
And in my head, I walked up that grassy hill to the TB Sanitarium.
Nobody hardly knows about this.
Thank you S. L. Stoner for making it real.
You know some shady things happened at Elk Rock Island.
Maybe even Astoria and The Trail To the Sea. Ft. Stevens area.
Oregon City is ugly with history.
