Somebody has murdered legendary but notorious Denver oilman, Wildcat Willie Davidson. When the front page headline murder lands in homicide detective Tom Montgomery's lap, he immediately enlists his PI friend, Cort Scott, to help in the investigation. Scott was a successful petroleum geologist before making a jaw-dropping career change to become a private investigator. Tom Montgomery thinks Scott's knowledge and connections in the oil business community will jump start the investigation.Wildcat Willie Davidson had been a bigger than life figure in Denver's political and social circles. Tom is pressured from all sides to solve the crime and make a quick arrest. The pressure extends to his personal life and even threatens his relationship with Cort Scott.Too many suspects, too many motives, and too little time force Cort to take short cuts that prove dangerous. A dysfunctional family, professional jealousy, greed, lust, and revenge all point to possible killers. Balancing his personal relationships with girlfriend, Lindsey Collins, Tom, and rookie homicide detective, Lee Anne LeBlanc are proving difficult.In Cort Scott's most perplexing and dangerous case, his loyalties and friendships are stretched to the breaking point. MORE THAN 100% DEAD plays out in the urban canyons of downtown Denver, in the affluent suburbs, and against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains.
