The Sanibel Sunset Detective by Ron Base

He was also the Brockville correspondent for the Kingston Whig Standard. Based on his work for the weekly, he landed a part-time job at the daily Recorder and Times where he wrote a column for teenagers and worked as a general assignment reporter during the summer. He began writing for a weekly newspaper, The United Counties Packet, when he was 15 years old. Here Base finished elementary school and then attended Brockville Collegiate Institute and Vocational School. His bank manager father, Eric, moved the family-mother Jean and younger brother Ric-from Belleville to Cobourg to Picton, and finally to Brockville, Ontario. Ron Base was born in Belleville, Ontario, Dec. Ron Base’s latest Tree Callister adventure, 'The Four Wives of the Sanibel Sunset Detective', tries to find the answer. At a time when he is supposed to be retired and enjoying a quiet life on an island paradise, Tree finds himself in bigger jams than ever, trying to stay alive while he searches for a killer all the while asking himself his own version of that same question: 'How does a private detective get married so many times?' Yes, a murder or two, and even Marilyn Monroe shows up unexpectedly. Before Tree knows it, he is up to his neck in complications, including a jailed ex-wife, his best friend under arrest, a Russian oligarch who doesn’t like him, cops out to get him… What’s more, all his ex-wives are in trouble. All he knows is that his three ex-wives have arrived on Sanibel Island, off the west coast of Florida, much to the chagrin of Freddie, his fourth and current wife. How does one private detective end up married four times? A good question.
