The Golden Ear

Joseph Bradley is a Navy veteran and former Reactor Operator who spent twenty years listening to the hum of nuclear aircraft carriers. Now, he brings that technical precision to the Second Fret Mysteries.

His protagonist, Coda, isn't a cop or a soldier—he's a sonar tech with a "Golden Ear" who solves crimes by hearing what others miss. Set in the fog-soaked Pacific Northwest, these mysteries blend acoustic forensics with classic noir.
