The Raid: More Than A Body Ought To Bear by Robert J. RosenbaumWhen the DEA raids Jake Grummond's dairy in the wee hours of an August morning they find no drugs but they devastate the dairy and turn Jake's wife into a basket case. With little help from the legal system, Jake takes the hunt for who falsely fingered him, into his own hands. County Sheriff C.W. Blakenship also tries to unravel the reason for the ill-fated raid. They keep meeting, locked in a dance neither acknowledges, as their hunts reach an explosive climax neither foresaw.Bob Rosenbaum spent his first ten years in Portland, OR, followed by years in New England, a year in England, over 25 years in Texas, and has now lived on Colorado’s Western Slope for 24 years. Along the way he acquired a BA from Yale and a PHD in History from the University of Texas at Austin, with a specialty in the American West. He has taught at 4 universities. He has also been, at various times, a construction laborer, a house painter and roofer, political speech writer, chief of a volunteer fire department, and manager of a mountain community’s forest --among other jobs.
