    About this ebook

    What is a young man to do when he accidentally stumbles upon the secret hideaway of three refugees from the law, who will do anything to keep their whereabouts unknown?

    Young, rich, spoiled, and naive George Lattimer sets out to hitchhike Route 66 across the country in the summer of 1964. After a bad experience getting a ride, he finds himself lost in the Ozark wilderness and stumbles upon the lair of three large, hairy outdoorsmen, hiding from the U.S. Marshals. They are determined to keep their hideaway a secret at all costs.

      The Three Bears

      By Alex Morgan

      George stepped out the backdoor of his family home and into the oppressive heat of early August. He sprinted barefoot across the hot cement and jumped into the clear, cool waters of the in-ground pool. Swimming the length underwater, he emerged at the opposite end, exhaling and shaking water from his mop of blond hair. He swam in lazy circles enjoying the relief from an unseasonably hot summer.

      George Harold Lattimer, Junior!

      Oh, shit, he muttered, turning to the sound of the voice. Whenever his mother used his full name, it usually meant trouble and that was not a good sign. Ruth Lattimer strutted out the door with a martini glass in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Her cat-eye framed sunglasses made her look angry even when she wasn’t. Judging from the way she just screeched his name, she was furious about something.

      Are you out of your mind? she snapped.

      I take it you’ve been talking to Dad? George answered, knowing his casual voice would infuriate her even more.

      You’re damn right I have. He told me to talk some sense into you.

      George scoffed. As if his mother was the epitome of reason and motherly advice. Ruth enjoyed the perks of having a very successful husband and living in one of the most affluent neighborhoods in Chicago. It allowed her the luxury of being a stay-at-home mom, a role which she rarely practiced. She was too busy attending parties, shopping and keeping up with the Joneses to be bothered with domestic chores such as housekeeping or child-rearing. There were maids, cooks and nannies for those undesirable tasks which she couldn’t bear to be seen doing.

      Why on earth would anyone want to hitchhike across the country? she shrieked.

      George screwed up his face and shoved off, doing a backstroke. Because I’m dying to get out of here and I don’t have a car to do it. This is something I want to do before summer ends and I have to go to work for Dad’s law firm.

      Not that he wouldn’t enjoy the benefits of his father’s successful law firm. Season tickets to the Cubs and the Bears play in Wrigley Field. Having an office in the Prudential Building, the second tallest in the city only to the Chicago Board of Trade, soon to be third when the Daley Center opened next year. Still, the view of Lake Michigan wouldn’t be obstructed.

      It was all very nice, if only he didn’t have to work for it.

      "That’s the stupidest thing
